From the main square of the hamlet of Saint-Sauveur (commune of Notre-Dame-de-Mésage), follow a yellow-marked path which, after a few bends, joins a forest track around 850m. Follow it left for nearly 1km to find a newly marked path (direction "belvedere de la Roche") climbing due south. Sometimes bordered by ancient walls, it ascends a discreet valley to the hut. It is also possible to come from the top, Beauplat, although the little-used trail gets lost in the slopes. However, the trail from the hut to the Col de la Chal has almost disappeared. Public transport access: Transisere bus lines n°4100-4101, stop "Saint Sauveur". Timetables are available at www.transisere.fr
A very pretty hut built on the ruins of an old sheepfold, mainly used and maintained by local hunters. Equipment includes: table, benches, stools, broom, axe, saw. Small mezzanine suitable for sleeping. Wood storage room. Insulation seems more than adequate. Stove repaired in 2023. This shelter can serve as a stop before continuing to the nearby belvedere de la Roche, or for the more energetic, to the various hills of the Conest. Seems to be open intermittently. Currently closed, see the message from "Lolo de Vizille". 2026: On IGN Top25, mention of a "shelter" pictogram. Its usage status remains unknown to date
