Description

Nestled at an altitude of 2,103 metres in the heart of the Val de Bagnes, the Cabane Brunet is one of the best gateways to the most beautiful landscapes of the Combins massif. Thanks to the TMR 12.253 service to La Barmasse, followed by the shuttle bus running directly to the hut during the summer season, this exceptional site is easily accessible by public transport.

A veritable balcony overlooking the Alps, the Cabane Brunet offers breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks, high-altitude pastures and the massif’s glaciers. Its warm atmosphere, sunny terrace and renowned cuisine make it the ideal destination for a family day out, a gourmet break or a holiday in the mountains.

As the starting point for numerous hikes, the hut provides access to the famous Corbassière Footbridge, the Panossière Hut and the Tour des Combins trails, amongst others. Whether you’re a lover of the great outdoors or simply looking for a break in the fresh air, the Cabane Brunet is an unmissable, accessible and exotic destination in the heart of the Valais Alps.
