The Auberge de la Jasserie is located at an altitude of 1,310 meters, at the foot of Crêt de la Perdrix. The inn allows you to eat but also offers beds. Count 46 euros for one night with meals plus breakfast. The welcome is great!

April 27, 2025,Boucle Saut du Gier – Refuge de la Jasserie au départ de La Valla-en-Gier

The first part is very nice, with the water crossing and the waterfall. But when you get to the refuge, the path is more of a chaotic 4x4 track, not very beautiful and not pleasant to walk on.

Warning to hikers: significant positive and negative elevation gain (38%) and especially 3/4 of the way through scree fields. Have a good hike!
