Building works. Opening disrupted or suspended: check before booking.
The building was destroyed by fire in 2019: in 2026 there is still no dormitory and you sleep in a tent only, your own or a rented one. The wardens provide meals and a small shop around a large equipped bivouac area. It is one of the stages that fill up earliest: book as soon as bookings open.
