The place

The IGN 1:25000 map 3235 OT "Autrans" shows a pictogram suggesting there is a shelter at the cabin. This is FALSE. The cabin is used only during the summer grazing season by shepherds. However, you can take shelter from bad weather in a loft space. Exceptional view over the Grenoble basin and the Belledonne range. From Engin, on the north half of the Sornin plateau

Getting there

Private cabin reserved for shepherds during the summer grazing season. However, you can take shelter from bad weather in a loft space.

The setting

From Engin, on the north half of the Sornin plateau. Exceptional view over the Grenoble basin and the Belledonne range (Vercors, Isère, 45.22°N 5.61°E, 1539 m). IGN ANOMALY: the shelter pictogram on the 1:25,000 map 3235 OT Autrans is incorrect — the cabin is used only during the summer grazing season by shepherds.
