The refuge's janitors, Anouck and Thibault, welcome you to an exceptional setting for a warm stopover. Enjoy their delicious cuisine on the panoramic south-facing terrace.

Introduction

In the Vercors Regional Nature Park, stop off at the Soldanelle refuge. As a stopover on the Grandes Traversées du Vercors, it remains easily accessible in summer for families, or will be the starting point for sporting hikes.

The Refuge de la Soldanelle is located at 1500m altitude, at the foot of the Rocher des Deux Sœurs, on the Balcons-Est of the Vercors plateau.
Easily accessible on foot after a 45-minute ascent on a signposted hiking trail, it enables a varied public to enjoy the pleasures of the mountains in an exceptional panorama.
The view from the refuge's terrace has nothing to envy of high mountain massifs. The panorama stretches from the crests of the Vercors to Mont Blanc, including Dévoluy, Ecrins, Belledonne, Grandes Rousses and Chartreuse.
