About : Pic Coolidge (3,775m)
To get to the Temple-Écrins refuge, you have to walk along the Vénéon, up through the Carrelet wood and climb a few stone steps before the landscape gradually opens up. At the end of the path, the refuge comes into view.
On the second day, we get to the heart of the matter with the ascent of Pic Coolidge. Leaving the refuge, you first reach the Col de la Temple-Épaule at 3,321m. You then have to climb 450m to reach the summit of Pic Coolidge at 3,775m.
