ITINERARY
From the parking des granges, take the path down to the turquoise waters of the Vénéon. Cross the bridge and head straight for Alpe du Pin. The climb is steady and you'll be refreshed by the spray from the Froide Pisse waterfall. As you walk, take the time to read the story written on the signs along the way.
On arrival, discover the stone Alpe du Pin refuge, which overlooks the Vénéon valley from its belvedere.
Built in 1947, the refuge has retained the modesty of its origins over the decades, while reasonably adapting its comfort to today's requirements.
