Rifugio Maison Vieille

A private refuge at the Col Chécrouit, in the middle of the Courmayeur ski area, at the exact spot where the TMB leaves the Mont-Favre ridge to drop towards Dolonne.

The atmosphere is festive (music, good wines) and the Aosta Valley cooking features meat grilled on stone ("losa"), facing the south face of Mont Blanc. Handy for breaking up the descent or avoiding the Courmayeur hotels; in July and August, the Dolonne gondola and the Maison Vieille chairlift let you shorten the walk.
