Located on the route of the GR 5, the Vallonbrun refuge is a choice stopover for exploring the Vanoise National Park.

Its traditional dry stone architecture gives it a certain charm. It dominates the valley of Haute-Maurienne and offers a beautiful panorama of the Albaron, the Dent Parrachée, the Meije, or the Aiguilles d'Arves.

This refuge is managed in a sustainable way: rainwater harvesting, solar energy, waste sorting, dry toilet. It thus participates in raising public awareness on the subjects of sustainable development and the protection of nature. The refuge is open from mid-June to mid-September. The dormitory has 27 beds and blankets are provided.

The bivouac near the refuge is authorized, with a capacity of sixteen people or eight tents. You will then be asked for a fee of five euros per person.

The hut is not managed, but apparently there is a hut keeper during the season.
