Mountain huts near Chamonix

146 shelters within 35 km of Chamonix, 98 of them wardened. Every altitude, bed count and season below comes from the shelters' own records.

A wardened refuge has a keeper, meals and blankets only inside the months shown, and is shut or reduced to an unheated winter room outside them. Where a season is not published we say so rather than guess. Confirm with the refuge before you go.
