Refuges in Pra Loup

To experience the mountains in a different way, head for the Pra Loup refuges. In summer and winter, they invite you to take a real nature break, far from everything but very close to the peaks.

Refuge hotel de Bayasse :

Nestled at an altitude of 1,800 metres, in the heart of the peaceful hamlet of Bayasse, the Refuge-Hotel de Bayasse is a real timeless interlude. Here, the disconnection is total: far from the urban tumult, you quickly abandon yourself to the silence of the mountains, the scent of the larches and the murmur of the torrents.

Between alpine lights, unspoilt immensity and a warm atmosphere, Bayasse naturally invites you to reconnect with nature. Each season offers its own picture: the flowery meadows of spring, the sun-drenched summer paths, the flamboyant colours of autumn and, of course, the winter magic that covers the hamlet in a veil of immaculate snow.

Here, a change of scenery is guaranteed. People come to recharge their batteries, to enjoy authentic cuisine, to hike in the wild landscapes of the Mercantour National Park or simply to take their time — a rare luxury today. The Refuge Hôtel de Bayasse is not just a place to stay: it is an experience, a refuge for the mind as well as for the body.
