Cabane des Diablerets

The Cabane des Diablerets is located at 2486 m on a saddle south of the Tête aux Chamois, the middle station of the Glacier 3000 cable car, above Les Diablerets in the municipality of Ormont-Dessus in the canton of Vaud. The small mountain hut belongs to the Jaman section of the Swiss Alpine Club and offers 32 campsites in simple multi-bed rooms. Thanks to its location in the middle of the ski area and on the edge of the Diablerets glacier, it is the starting point for hikes, climbs, the nearby via ferrata and ski and high-altitude tours to peaks such as the Sommet des Diablerets or the Becca d'Audon. The hut is usually open from mid-June to September and from the end of December to the end of April, depending on the weather, avalanche situation and the operation of the mountain railroads; outside of these periods, it remains closed and there is no winter room or emergency accommodation. It is suitable for training courses, school classes, clubs and families who want to spend the night on the mountain. Current weather reports, lift operation, trail conditions and any closures should be checked carefully before each tour. The hut was built in 1952 and sold by the SAC Chaussy section to the Jaman section in 2018 and has since been gradually upgraded.
