About
Refuge de Rosuel sits at 1,547m in the Savoie region, well-positioned for access to the surrounding valleys and ridgelines. The hut is reached via hiking trails from the lower valleys—approach times vary by trailhead but most approaches take 3–4 hours. The refuge is managed by FFCAM and serves as a solid base for day hikes and multi-day traverses across the region.
The refuge has 50 beds across mixed dormitories. Meals are available and you should arrange these when you book. There are basic facilities: running water, toilets, and heating. There is no WiFi. The refuge opens seasonally—confirm dates before planning your trip. The hut does not operate year-round; it typically closes in winter. Staff prepare meals for residents and provide simple but adequate accommodation for serious hikers.
Book directly by phone or email as soon as you fix your dates. July and August fill quickly—aim to book 4–8 weeks ahead for these months. May through October is the main season, though shoulder months are quieter and often more pleasant. Contact the refuge directly to confirm current opening dates and meal options.
