Description

After enjoying breakfast at the refuge set off up the picturesque and wild aretes of Moede and Villy and their respective summits before continuing up to the high and barren summit of the Mont Buet. On a clear day you can see as far as the high mountains of Monte Rosa and the Matterhorn on one side and to the Jura and beyond on the other.

Few peaks offer such a reaching and unrestricted perspective of the alps. After taking in the view begin the descent to the Refuge Pierre a Berard and down the picturesque Buet valley and it's torent and waterfalls.
