Restrooms are available outside the refuge. There are no bathrooms or showers in operation during the winter. The water source is marked outside, a few meters from the refuge.

There is no way to charge your phone. Please note that there is little to no cell service at the refuge.

For sleeping, we provide 2 blankets. Be sure to bring a sleeping bag, as the nights are very cool. Dormitory temperatures range from 0 to 5°C; there is no heating in the dormitories. Hot water bottles are available upon request.

We’re on site to heat the building, help you prepare meals, provide updates on weather and snow conditions, and offer advice on your itineraries.
