How to plan a smooth, dog‑friendly alpine escape
A little preparation goes a long way when you’re travelling with your dog. Use these practical tips to keep your stay relaxed and enjoyable:
- Pack the essentials: Lead, harness, waste bags, a familiar blanket, and your dog’s usual food to avoid sudden diet changes.
- Maintain routines: Keep feeding and walk times as consistent as possible to help your dog settle quickly in a new environment.
- Be mindful in shared spaces: For everyone’s comfort, use a lead and follow the team’s guidance in public areas.
- Choose the right room layout: If you prefer a bit more room, explore options like the Panorama Deluxe Double Room Staz or a Junior Suite Corvatsch.
- Plan your arrival: If you’re coming by train, arrange the complimentary shuttle in advance by sharing your arrival time. Road‑tripping? Opt for valet parking for a smooth check‑in.
- Hydration and altitude: In alpine destinations, bring water on longer outings and watch for signs of overexertion—especially on warmer days.
- Post‑adventure wind‑down: After your outing, make time for recovery—your dog with a nap in the room, and you in the sauna, steam bath or on the relaxation terrace.
