Capacity: 54 People
Opening period: Open from June 17, 2022 to September 17, 2023
The refuge is located at 1877 m in a preserved valley in the heart of the Sixt-fer-à-cheval Nature Reserve. It is a family hike known for its access marked out by waterfalls, for the Dérochoir and its view on the Mont-Blanc and for the Désert de Platé, a geological curiosity.
Our parents created the Refuge in 1981 out of love for nature and the mountains, and were the guardians of the place for 32 years. We have taken over the family business with the same values of simplicity and authenticity.
Directions
The classic access to the refuge is from the Lignon car park. It is easy and particularly suitable for families.
