Access
By road:
From Bardonecchia, follow the tarmac road towards the hamlet of Rochemolles. On leaving the village, continue along the dirt track for around 8 km. From the refuge, you can take the dirt track up to Col du Sommelier (3,000 m), where the remains of the famous glacier are a breathtaking sight in any season. The trails leading up to the pass offer stunning panoramas punctuated by peaks, plateaux and high plateaux. Considered to be the highest road for vehicles in Europe, it is also used by day-trippers on motorbikes and 4x4s.
On foot/by mountain bike:
There are several paths leading from the hamlet of Rochemolles to the refuge. From Bardonecchia, the old "Decauville" railway line also offers an interesting alternative. A shuttle bus service runs between the Bardonecchia railway station and Rochemolles.
