Departure from the car park located near the Col des Annes buildings.
(S/E) At the end of the car park, follow the uphill track towards Têtes des Annes (the arrival point of a chairlift). Go through two hairpin bends and you will find the start of a path on the left.
(1) Follow this path, which runs parallel to the track below, and climb steadily to Tête des Annes, behind the chairlift arrival station.
(2) Continue along the path opposite, which more or less follows the ridge before descending to the Col de l'Oulettaz. Steep descent equipped with a handrail for assistance (no difficulty).
(3) Continue the descent to the right, leaving a faint path on the right and continuing on a flat section. Then begin the climb between the rocks and sharp limestone pavement, using your hands for help in places, and reach a fork in a grassy area.
(4) Turn left and follow the tight switchbacks to reach the refuge in its rocky setting.
(5) Return to the Col des Annes car park via the same route (S/E).
