Gîte with Savoyard traditions, popular with hikers on the GR5 and those who appreciate simple local products.

Since 1870, the Chalet Refuge du Nant Borrant has offered a picturesque refuge to hikers and tourists crossing the mountains. In a natural setting, this chalet perpetuates 100% Savoyard traditions with warmth and simplicity. Local produce, Savoyard specialties and homemade desserts make up the gourmet menus that will delight your taste buds. From classics like tartiflette and bougnettes to homemade desserts, everything is a delight. The evening "hiker's meal" is also a pure marvel. There are also five small dormitories.

I did the full TMB earlier this month and this was my favorite refuge. It's nested in a gorgeous valley with incredible views, the cottage itself is the most beautiful, well-cared for establishment I had the fortune to visit along the trek—and competition is fierce in the region. If you arrive on a sunny day, you get to enjoy the terrace overlooking the mountains, but the interior feels just as welcoming and homey. Food was excellent, showers and toilets were in good condition, and they also have a mud room equipped with electric drying boot racks (not all refuges have this) where you get to leave your gear for the night (you're given a box for the few personal items you need to take to your room). Overall they're quite well organized, which contributes to a mess-free stay in what I can only assume is a pretty busy hut during all season. And if you order the takeaway packed lunch for the next day, it comes in a cloth bag with the refuge name you get to keep as a gift!

Op de hele GR 5 heb ik nergens een refuge tegengekomen waar ik blij van werd. Het is een noodzakelijk kwaad als je geen tent wil meenemen . Het eten is overal hetzelfde (pasta) en alles is er duur.
Dat er mensen zijn die vijf sterren aan een refuge in de Alpen geven kan ik dus niet begrijpen.

I enjoyed my stay here during my trek. Beds were comfortable, great shower, and the food was really good. I was able to pick up a lunch for the trail. The views to start the morning were amazing.

In general everything was good for what it was... A refuge with dorms. However the corridors, toilets, and showers are very small and crammed. The toilets and showers are outside of the building. Food was alright, nothing to write home about. No wifi available.
