Molline Shelter
At an elevation of 2,415 m in the Menouve Valley: an unattended bivouac with running water in the summer and a gas stove.
The Molline Bivouac is located at 2,415 meters in the Menouve valley at the foot of Mount Vélan (3,710 m), along the Alta Via No. 1 and Tour des Combins trails.
The shelter is equipped with a hydroelectric generator that operates during the summer months when there is water in the nearby stream, as well as 16 beds, a stove, a kitchen, and a dining room. It is easily accessible from Col Champillon, the village of Prailles (Étroubles), and the Swiss municipality of Bourg-Saint-Pierre via Col Menouve (2,757 m), Col Molline (2,907 m), and Col d’Annibal (2,992 m)
The Molline Bivouac remains open year-round, even during the winter season. A double steel door that opens has recently been installed, and we ask all users to close it properly.
For more information, please contact the municipality of Étroubles during office hours.
