Why is Les Échasses called an eco-lodge?

Les Échasses is an eco-lodge because its untreated timber-frame accommodations are built on stilts, in a minimal and reversible way, within the wetland ecosystem and Landes forest, with a small footprint. The approach extends to the deliberately limited capacity, the permaculture vegetable garden, the orchard and seasonal cooking. The MICHELIN Guide also highlights its nature-focused approach.
