Die Cabane Des Vignettes ist unter anderem ein Stützpunkt auf der Haute Route und somit zu Recht sehr beliebt. Die Hütte liegt sehr spektakulär auf einem hohen Felsvorsprung. 
Die Cabane Des Vignettes ist eine sehr schöne, recht moderne Hütte der SAC Sektion Monte Rosa. Die 1924 und 2008 erbaute Hütte liegt auf 3157 Metern und hat 120 Betten. 

Die Lage der Hütte ist besonders schön und man hat einen guten Rundblick. Bei den Hüttengästen ist vor allem der Pigne d'Arolla und die Etappe der Haute Route nach Zermatt sehr beliebt. Deshalb sollte man sich frühestmöglich ein Bett reservieren. Für den Zeitraum, in der die Hütte nicht bewirtschaftet ist, gibt es einen Winterraum. Dieser ist ohne Schlüssel zugänglich. Der Winterraum ist mit Gasherd, Ofen und Skiraum sehr gut ausgestattet. Bitte sauber zurücklassen!
