Châtellerat Cabin

Cabane pastorale du Châtellerat
Haute vallée de la Bonne
Credit : Jean Pierre Nicollet - PNE

Description

A route through the mountain valley of La Bonne through low-lying, sub-Alpine vegetation: juniper bushes, heather, rhododendrons...From the car park at the entrance of Le Désert-en-Valjouffrey, cross the village, heading east. Cut across the GR 54, by crossing the stream of La Laisse - it leads to the left to Côte Belle and to the right to Col de la Vaurze. Follow the path on the right bank of La Bonne which leads you to the entrance of the Ecrins National Park. The entrance to this protected area is shown by three information panels. After crossing a footbridge near the Pisse waterfall, continue along the rising path, still following the bottom of the valley through fairly low-lying vegetation. You arrive at the Châtellerat cabin. Come back the same way.

Ambiance

The landscapes of the Bonne valley are remarkable for the lushness of the vegetation and the shapes of the reliefs inherited from the major glacial eras. Here, the glaciers have worked like powerful rebate planes, digging out and shaping the most vulnerable rocks. The mountain cliffs, glacial barriers and waterfalls bear witness to the natural erosion in the Valbonnais valleys.

Access

From Entraigues, take the D117 to the village of Le Désert-en-Valjouffrey

Advised parking

Entrance to the village of Le Désert-en-Valjoufrey

Advice

No transport services to the start of the trail.

Herd protection dogs

In mountain pastures, protection dogs are there to protect the herds from predators (wolves, etc.).When I hike I adapt my behavior by going around the herd and pausing for the dog to identify me.Find out more about the actions to adopt with the article "Protection dogs: a context and actions to adopt".Tell us about your meeting by answering this survey.

Is in the midst of the park

The national park is an unrestricted natural area but subjected to regulations which must be known by all visitors.
