Portrait

• Between the southern and northern Alps, the Thabor massif is a paradise for hikers and backpackers. A multitude of lakes, a varied geology, grandiose landscapes... At the refuge, Charline and Ludovic, a couple of friendly janitors, welcome and advise families and hikers on their way up Mont Thabor (3178 m). They will treat you to home-cooked meals based on organic, local and artisanal produce.
