A frozen, protected wonderland: slow adventure in the less visited French Alps
Thu, 06 Feb 2025 07:00:03 GMT
At the gateway to the Vanoise national park, new cabins make a great base for a wild winter retreat that’s laid-back but packed with activity
The snow is deep and soft as we pad slowly forward, a muffled crunching the only sound breaking the silence. All around us, the jagged peaks of the Vanoise massif pierce the sky, glinting in the clear morning light. As we walk, Matthieu, my snowshoeing guide, points out fresh tracks – mountain hare, roe deer, fox – and on the mountainside we spy ibex: first a lone male, then a group surveying us from on high.
Champagny-le-Haut, a 1,500-metre-high glacial valley in the French Alps close to the Italian border, is the gateway to the Vanoise national park. In summer it offers pristine mountain hikes and waterfalls, while in winter, with snow closing the road beyond the pretty hamlet of Le Bois where I’m staying, it’s a frozen, protected wonderland. A world away from the busy ski resorts elsewhere in La Plagne, it’s perfect for a more low-key, affordable winter holiday in the heart of nature.

A group of volunteers is spending two months lying in bed—with their feet up and one shoulder always touching the mattress—even while eating, showering, and using the toilet. But why? This extreme bedrest study is helping scientists understand how space travel affects the human body and how to keep astronauts healthy on long missions.
Microgravity causes muscle and bone loss, fluid shifts, and other physiological changes similar to those experienced by bedridden patients on Earth. By studying volunteers here on Earth, researchers can develop better countermeasures for astronauts and even improve treatments for medical conditions like osteoporosis.
In this study, participants are divided into three groups: one stays in bed with no exercise, another cycles in bed to mimic astronaut workouts, and a third cycles while being spun in a centrifuge to simulate artificial gravity. Scientists hope artificial gravity could become a key tool in protecting astronauts during deep-space missions.
