Jas de Taramate

Jas de Taramate is a dry-stone sheepfold (jas) used as a simple backcountry shelter on the slopes of Mont Ventoux, France. It’s an unstaffed structure for hikers looking for an emergency rest point rather than a staffed mountain hut.

Because it’s an unstaffed historic jas, plan for self-sufficiency: bring everything you need for the night (warm layers, shelter gear as appropriate, and water planning). Use it as a waypoint/stop where you can take cover, not as bookable accommodation with a reservation system.
