It is an old alpine chalet, transformed into an unguarded hut. There is a fountain, picnic tables, and everything you need to cook and spend the night.

Hiking
The most beautiful unguarded mountain hut in the Bauges (and perhaps the entire Alps). The refuge is maintained by an association and has about fifteen beds upstairs. It is equipped with a wood-burning stove and a pleasant outdoor terrace.
