Nestled in the heart of the mountain pastures bordering the Vanoise National Park, the bucolic refuge of Plan Sec is a first choice stop. Overlooking the Aussois valley and the lakes that sleep there, the view testifies to a rare grandeur.

An essential point for travelers on the GR 5 or crossing the Alps, the refuge also makes an excellent base camp for day visits to the surrounding dams, the Col d'Aussois, the Pointe de l'Observatoire, the Rateau d'Aussois or the Lac du Génépy.

In season, the refuge fills up quickly. Remember to book if you want to spend the night there. For a fee, it is possible to pitch your tent next to the refuge or to use the shower.

To my personal taste one of the most beautiful refuges in the area. Camping is possible, hot showers and a kitchen can be used. Really comfortable and not so crowded. Here it is even more refugee than hotel.
We recommend!
