The residence consists of eight mini-villages, each comprising five to six three-storey buildings with simple, timbered architecture designed to blend into the landscape. There is no concrete here, but rather the atmosphere of a small alpine hamlet, with everything you need within walking distance: restaurants, bars, a swimming pool and wellness area, equipment hire, a mini-market, activities, and more. ‘Bachat’ means ‘watering hole’ in the local dialect. It is a nice nod to the original purpose of this place: a stopping point, a place to recharge your batteries.
