REFUGE DE CHAMBEYRON (FFCAM) (2626 m)

ALPES - Queyras Sud-Parpaillon-Ubaye-Orrenaye

In the Haute Ubaye valley, the Chambeyron refuge is located on the shores of Lake Premier, at the foot of the Brec de Chambeyron which rises to 3,389 metres.

This refuge, in a preserved mineral nature, invites you to disconnect. You can come there to do "nothing", except to look, listen, feel... enjoy the beauty of the place, and the good food of the caretaker. You will meet hikers because there are many routes around the refuge. Mountaineers will set off towards the Brec de Chambeyron or the Aiguilles de Chambeyron. For mountain bike enthusiasts, the Haute-Ubaye is a superb spot! Some will prefer fishing in the mountain lakes. In winter, this wild massif is to be discovered by ski touring! The refuge is a stage of many raids or loops of varying duration in Ubaye or between Queyras, Val Maïra and Mercantour. Or on the crossing of the Alps!
