Le Cuchet Refuge

Lanslebourg-Mont-Cenis

Le Refuge du Cuchet
OT HMV
Description

Marmots' calls greet you as soon as you leave the village. Cross the Sainte-Marie stream and embark on one of the area's most beautiful approach hikes. The Pramaria woods are wonderfully cool and refreshing. Spruce and fir trees dominate here. Can you feel the serenity? Suddenly, as if by magic, Massif du Mont Cenis rears its head on the opposite slope. When the Lombarde starts to blow, an astonishing sight often begins to unfold as clouds envelop the Col. A well-deserved food stop may tempt you to stay overnight in this unsupervised refuge. In the hamlet of Cuchet, ruins and restored chalets come together to create an authentic mountain atmosphere, showcasing traditional life in the mountain pastures. Herds, marmots, and chamois often share this living area. Sometimes, you can even spot the wings of a bearded vulture as it soars over La Turra ridge and the peak of Grand Vallon. At the fringes of Vanoise National Park, enjoy a succession of exhilirating viewpoints that'll give you wings as you make your way down a trail designed for experienced trail runners and hikers.
