Pré Vérel Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

At the foot of the Tournette, the Pré Vérel refuge is a great place to eat and spend the night. The atmosphere is friendly and the cuisine is based on local products. It is possible to pitch the tent there. A very nice address!

It is one of the major paragliding spots in France. Here, we have the opportunity to see a good number of paragliders take off. That's really nice !

Tour along the starting point of hang gliders and paragliders - via a forest path along / over rocks towards a mountain hut where delicious cheese could be bought. And back again.

Nice hike, but at the end there is a climb of 100m

This hike was awesome. Small flat at the chalet and farm of l'Aulp, refusing us a table to sit down when we wanted to buy him cheese and cold meats ... For our lunch we had our sandwiches

Beautiful mountain hike to a great alpine pasture that produces a multi-award-winning Reblochon cheese. Unfortunately, we weren't allowed to try it, of course it's closed when we come...😮‍💨 So it stayed with water and baguettes until we had a rescue panaché at the Col de We were able to get hold of Forclaz.😁
