Refuge du Goléon

A charming and rustic high-mountain refuge located at 2465m altitude, offering breathtaking views of the Aiguilles d'Arves and the Lac du Goléon. Accessible via a demanding hike, it serves as a base for mountaineers and trekkers exploring the northern parts of the Ecrins. The refuge typically offers dormitory-style accommodation, shared facilities, and half-board options with traditional mountain meals. It is usually guarded from mid-June to mid-September and during certain periods in spring for ski touring, with prices around 50-70€ for half-board. Booking well in advance is essential due to its popularity and remote location.
