Refuge – Auberge du Truc

What a beautiful place. We arrived to a warm welcome from Martine. Stunning views, friendly farm where they even let our kids watch the milking which was a highlight. Best milk/cheese we had (non UHT!) on our whole TMB. Comfortable clean beds and dormitory. Long drop toilet super clean and not smelly. Didn’t even bother to use the closer flush toilet available over night. Basins to have a bit of a wash (need to bring own towel/soap). Only thing that could be improved was the creaking/noise of the dormitory door which was loud enough to wake at night with people getting up. Picnic was great with amazing fresh baguettes, delicious cheese and fruit/tomato which was rare on the journey. Highly recommend as part of the TMB. Good it’s part of the easy booking website, but other places we stayed at in the villages we would say to look elsewhere.

Very friendly people! They were very helpful when I mentioned that I hurt my knee on the hike down to the refuge. They even drove me down to the town the next day so I was able to get a knee brace. The views were gorgeous and the food was great! 10/10 would recommend to stay here :)

Comfortable bunk beds in a quiet and smaller refuge. Delicious cheese served as one of the dinner courses. No showers due to limited water, but this did not detract from the quality or comfort of the accommodations.
