This first refuge of the GR20 is really worth the detour. The view is beautiful. The night in a bivouac under the stars really prepares you for the emotions of the course. Although the refuge was burnt down a few years ago, the facilities are in place and the minimum comfort is present.

Rustic refuge after the old site burnt down. If you are hiking south, don't worry - the refuges get better!
