A starting point for numerous races and circuits, the Refuge du Folly is the perfect place to discover the extraordinary flora and fauna of our mountains. Accessible to all types of hikers, from the most experienced to those taking their first steps.

Accessible to all types of hikers, from the most experienced to those taking their first steps, this hike will enable you to discover the extraordinary flora and fauna of our mountains.
Accommodation in dormitories or bedrooms (comforters and pillows provided, bring your own silk sheet), half-board option, packed lunches, aperitif boards, soft drinks... but also local dishes of the day (diots, farcement, croziflette, fondue...) and homemade pastries (blueberry tart, lemon tart, sweet potato tart, chocolate coconut fondant...).
Backing onto the slopes of Criou, facing Tuet and the ridges of Dents d'Oddaz, the refuge can be the goal of a day hike (to the famous Lac Des Chambres for example, or to Pointe de Bellegarde for the more motivated), or a base for more mountaineering-oriented itineraries (Pointe des Avoudrues). A veritable balcony overlooking the Giffre and Arve valleys, you'll never forget its sunsets!
