    Hard hike. Very good fitness required. Sure-footedness, sturdy shoes and alpine experience required.

    This refuge is located in an exceptional setting, in the heart of a mountain pasture and at the foot of Mont Viso. You can eat there in the middle of the day, or spend the night there. The cuisine is homemade, based on local products and favors short circuits. This is delicious ! Those who wish to pitch their tent near the refuge must contact the caretaker.

      The Refuge du Viso is a great place to take a break along the way or to stay overnight. The view of the Monviso is amazing and you can also find excellent craft beer.

        The best refuge in the valley. In the Ristolas reserve, a nature sanctuary within the Queyras Natural Park. No bivouac allowed. No wifi, limited electricity, absolute tranquility
