Mountain hut
Chalet Lacombe
About this hut: An unstaffed CAS Diablerets chalet above Le Sépey, used for self-catering stays and walks in the Mont d’Or–Hongrin area. All-year reservation-based operation is separate from present path, military access and winter transport conditions.
Notice: Open all year in self-management without a resident guardian; advance reservation is essential. This does not mean the door is open or beds are available without arrangements. Source read 2026-10-25.
Notice: Water comes from a spring, but its quality is not controlled. The owner strongly recommends boiling it before drinking. Source read 2026-10-25.
Path access notices
