    Tips

    The refuge is guarded during the summer months, but access to the refuge is open all year round. It is best to check with the Saint-Etienne-de-Tinnée tourist office if you intend to use it or stay there. It has a fire and a supply of wood in the main room and a dormitory with mattresses and blankets. A contribution of 8€ is requested and can be paid on the website.
