    Tips

    December 15, 2023

    This is a junction where you can choose between two trails that lead to the Pierredar refuge, a comfortable mountain hut located at an altitude of 2300 m. The first trail, called Prapio, is a mountain hike classified T3 which takes you through the Creux-de-Champ mountain pastures. The second trail, called Drudy, is a T4-rated alpine hike that traverses steep grassy slopes and rock faces, equipped with cables and chains for safety. Both trails offer breathtaking views of the Cirque des Hollows and the Diablerets massif. You can also combine the two trails for a loop hike, since they join 1 km before the refuge. Whichever trail you choose, you will be rewarded with a warm welcome and a delicious meal at the Pierredar refuge, where you can spend the night and enjoy the starry sky.
