Illustrator, writer, photographer and sensitive explorer of the Alps, he has dedicated his work to depicting a gentle, silent and profoundly alive mountain. Far from spectacular or heroic images, he preferred to capture a winter light, the trace of an animal in the snow, or the poetry of a landscape barely disturbed by the passage of man.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Samivel, the mountains are never conquered: they are observed, respected and inhabited. Samivel&#8217;s delicately colored watercolors, finely crafted texts and attentive eye for alpine fauna create a contemplative universe. We come across discreet chamois, peaks bathed in silence, tiny skiers in the white immensity. Everything invites us to slow down, to look differently, to experience the mountains with simplicity.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This vision resonates particularly well at Gai Soleil. Here, too, the mountains are discovered at a different pace: you take the time to observe the morning light on the peaks, to listen to the calm after a snowfall, to set off for a walk with no objective other than to be outside. A gentle, sincere, almost self-evident approach that echoes Samivel&#8217;s universe.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Samivel Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This heritage is also present just a few steps from the hotel, in the park created in his honor. This peaceful setting, directly accessible from Le Gai Soleil, is a natural extension of his view of nature. Its atmosphere is conducive to strolling, contemplation and discreet observation. The park is not conceived as a spectacular space, but as an invitation to slow down, to immerse oneself in the landscape, to rediscover that simple link with the environment that Samivel has always defended.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<section\n\tstyle=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-default);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-default);\" class=\"masonry-grid masonry-grid--text-top-left alignfull wp-block-acf-masonry-grid is-layout-flow wp-block-acf-masonry-grid-is-layout-flow\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile masonry-grid__wrapper\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie3.jpg\" alt=\"Parc Samivel Contamines Montjoie3\" class=\"wp-image-9402 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie3.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie3-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group masonry-grid__text-container has-secondary-background-color has-background is-vertical is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-3e9f99e2 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-xs);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-xs);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-xs);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--theme-xs)\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">A stone&#8217;s throw from Gai Soleil<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie6-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"Parc Samivel Contamines Montjoie6\" class=\"wp-image-9403\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie6-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie6.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie4-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"Parc Samivel Contamines Montjoie4\" class=\"wp-image-9405\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie4-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie4.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie5-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"Parc Samivel Contamines Montjoie5\" class=\"wp-image-9404\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie5-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gaisoleil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/Parc-Samivel-Contamines-Montjoie5.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<p>To walk through this park is to enter his world.
