Nice little rest stop in the middle of the forest, no cars allowed to access, but somehow all the cars must have got there.🤔

Nice little stop in the middle of the forest. Most people came by car though. Luckily not on my forest road.

This unguarded shelter can accommodate up to four people, by squeezing a little. It is also possible to bivouac around. It is located in a dream spot.

Nice place to stop over before starting the great crossing of the Vercors or to take a break after this crossing.

In winter snow, you can only reach the auberge by foot, but for the rest of the year you can also ride or drive to the friendly restaurant in the mountains. Enjoy some authentic home cooked food from this family-run cabin. Check out more at: http://www.malaterre.fr/
