Description
The refuge du Fond des Fours is composed of three chalets called "chalets Chaloin", disposed around a nice terrace. Two small chalets stand apart from the main ones : the winter toilets and the generator.
The refuge stands in a green and mineral setting, between the Pointes des Lorès and the Pélaou Blanc, close to the Plan des Fours lakes. It is the realm of chamois, that you might see if you get up before sunrise. As for the marmots, they are all around and usually quite curious.
On the way up to the refuge, you will see remains of the agricultural past of la Vanoise, like the semi-buried cellar and some traditional enclosures made of dry masonry.
