Access

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 at around 850m. Follow it left for nearly 1km to find a newly marked path (direction "belvédère de la Roche") climbing due south. Sometimes bordered by ancient dry-stone walls, it ascends a discreet valley up to the cabin. 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 cabin to the Col de la Chal has almost disappeared. Access by public transport: Transisere bus lines n°4100-4101, stop "Saint Sauveur". Timetables are available at www.transisere.fr

Good to know

A very pretty cabin built on the ruins of an old sheepfold, mainly used and maintained by local hunters. Available equipment: table, benches, stools, broom, axe, saw. Small mezzanine that can be used for sleeping. Wood storage room. The insulation seems more than adequate. Stove repaired in 2023. This shelter can serve as a stopover before heading to the nearby belvédère de la Roche, or for the more enduring hikers to the various peaks of the Conest. Seems to be open intermittently. Currently closed, see the message from "Lolo de Vizille".
