Access

From the bottom: from the chapel of Prodin, via the forest path, accessible by 4x4. Or from Villard de la Table, via forest paths. From the top: from the Col d'Arbarétan and the Refuge du Plan (path not shown on some maps). Note the existence of the "sentier de la Guenille" which descends northwards and meets a path that leads down to the Prodin track around 1300m. Useful if you want to reach Prévieux (or come from there).

Good to know

In very good condition. Two buildings, one serving as a reception area, the other, larger, under restoration (or workshop), whose lower part serves as a stable for donkeys or horses during the summer grazing period with no amenities or heating. Nearby water source. Outdoor toilets with a drainage stream. Tables and benches. Stove. Gas cooker, but the bottle is usually empty. A heavy metal-handled axe. North-facing. Mattresses were removed in 10/2023; their presence depends on the presence of the herder. GSM network reception is fairly good at the doorstep (outside), poor or nonexistent elsewhere.

No source says whether this hut is open. Missing information is not a guarantee.
