Refuge du Blaufels

The place

Log-cabin-style chalet at 812 m in the Hautes-Vosges (Haut-Rhin), with a fine view over the Thann valley. Unstaffed shelter with no sleeping area but you can spend the night in rustic fashion. Fireplace for cooking or warming up, tables and benches outside for picnics and barbecues. Generally clean and well organised, a little dry firewood available but no saw or axe. Access via a red-white marked trail between Willer-sur-Thur and the Rossberg farm; no vehicle access.
