Several possible access routes via different sides: - via the Abbey of Tamié or the Col de Tamié, approximately 2h45, longer if snow. (high avalanche risk when leaving the forest). - via Les Chaffauds, - via Orgeval passing by Chaurionde, - via the Sambuy ski resort, via Chalet de la Bouchasse, approximately 2h, - via the Bellevaux valley, starting at the Nant Fourchu car park then follow the Chéran on the left bank (approximately 3h to 3h30: 750mD+ 120mD-).
Communal mountain hut of very good quality, count 6 € per night to be paid to the shepherd. Large room on the ground floor serving as a kitchen and dining room, with a sink and a small washbasin. Upstairs, two dormitories with mattresses and blankets in large numbers, one small and one large. See the photos, everything is there: neon lighting and (sometimes) running water (only during the guard period), crockery (no less than 60 plates, not including glasses, bowls, cups and various utensils...), wood stove, gas stove, numerous cutlery, various pots, a set of pans and frying pans, 3 large tables, several benches, 4 chairs, flip-flops (yes, use them so as not to dirty the two upstairs rooms), mattresses, blankets, etc. 4 brooms including one extra wide, a shovel. 1 small axe for wood. Toilets outside (generally inaccessible in winter due to the door being blocked by snow) Dogs are forbidden, by municipal order on all the commune's alpine pastures. Caution in winter: the slope on the left when leaving the forest (just 300m before arriving at the hut when coming via Tamié) presents a very marked avalanche risk requiring great caution. Note that according to the signs, the spelling "Les Drisons" is also found.
