A medium length hike up to a mountain refuge above Les Brévières
This hike should take in the region of three hours to complete, slightly less if you start from the parking at Lac de Chevril and slightly more if you start from the far end of Les Brévières village.
Starting from the car park at the lake, take the path up through Chevril village and onto some steep switchbacks. Continue to climb up towards the climbing school and onward to a ruined chalet.
Head north in the direction of Villaret des Brévières and onto a clearing which leads up to a small plateau with a three way intersection. Head right, signposted "Bergerie de la Davie", and climb a short distance before another fork in the path. From here you'll get a great view of the Grande Motte glacier at the limit of the treeline.
At the next signpost take a right in the direction of "Alpage de la Davie" where the path leaves the forest. You start to head downhill after you make it to the Bergerie, follow the signs for Villaret des Brévières until you see the first sign for the lac du Chevril.
From here carry onto the parking area, or turn right back on yourself in the direction of Les Brévières.
The route can found on IGN map 3633ET Tignes - Val d'Isère and in the 'Les Sentiers de L'Été' booklet available from the Maison de Tignes tourist office.
