June - September

Refuge des Mottets is a charming mountain shelter nestled in the pristine Valley of Glaciers south of Mont Blanc. At an altitude of 1864 meters, it offers a breathtaking view of the Glacier Needle and the Seigne Mountain Pass. This historic alpine chalet, restored in 2010, operates from the beginning of June to the end of September, offering a tranquil escape from modern life.

Accommodations range from collective dormitories to private rooms, with or without private showers. The refuge is accessible by a 20-minute walk from the nearest road and a two-hour hike from the Col de la Seigne, ensuring a serene mountain experience.

With a family-friendly atmosphere, the team at Refuge des Mottets invites guests to enjoy social evenings, mountain mornings, and the tranquility of nature. Services include half-board, free tap water, and hot showers, with a bar and private parking available. The refuge operates on its own electricity and lacks a telephone network, adding to its rustic charm.

What a fantastic trip. From the excellent and informative guide, to wonderful, clean and comfortable accommodation. Each day we had perfect weather conditions, giving us picture perfect views every day. Was definitely a trip of a lifetime, which we still talk about often. Walking distances were achievable each day, with friendly guide spending time with everyone, regardless of walking speed. Each evening eating at different towns was a lovely cultural experience. Would highly recommend this trip to everyone. No Roads, is a great professional company to deal with and nothing was too much trouble. Couldn't recommend the trip and the tour company "No Roads Expeditions" more highly.

We had a lovely hike today with our guide Klemen. He personalized the tour on our needs and interests, so that we saw places we wouldn't without his experience. The hike was a little bit slippery after the rain from the last days and it went a lot upwards, but it was totally worth it! Thanks again :)

This trip was organized with every detail considered. Our accommodation, most meals and routes were planned each day which is perfect when the region is unknown and you have not completed a multi-day hike before. We had a great time!

Excellently organised and the apps worked brilliantly without data/roaming. This was expertly managed by Sara and we had the best time in full confidence that we were in great hands.

If I could give 100 stars, I would. I don't know if you're a big company or just two or three people behind this, but thank you for such an amazing experience. It was a beautiful adventure. The trails were perfect, each day different from the rest, and a natural beauty that I have seldom seen elsewhere. I had no experience in the world of hiking, and now I can't wait to do the next one! (hopefully next time organised by myself 😂). I had one of the best weeks of my whole life. Thank you a million guys.
