      Typically Swiss Chalets, it must be either in Wallis or in Graubünden.

      Going by the notched peak in the background, this looks like the area around Davos. Again, this image has been reversed. This image media.photobucket.com/image/view of davos/faiti/DSC00646.jpg?t=1192309807 shows a view up the valley.

      If janey_airball is right, this might be the same mountain as the one in the background on the left (1228 P.Z. Davos, Dörfli and Seehorn, in winter, Grisons, Switzerland):


      In that case, the chalet is most likely near the wooded slope that can be seen in front of the mountain. In the large version, it is even possible to make out a few chalets close to the treeline:
