About
Cabane Chalet-Neuf sits at 1,865m in the Piedmont Alps, serving as a base for hiking in the Gran Paradiso area. Access is from the Val di Rhêmes valley. The approach takes roughly 2.5 to 3 hours on foot depending on your starting point. The hut lies on established paths connecting the lower valleys to higher passes and peaks.
The hut sleeps 32 people across shared dormitory rooms. It provides drinking water and basic meals—expect simple fare typical of mountain refuges rather than restaurant dining. The kitchen is equipped for group cooking. The hut operates year-round, though winter conditions may require special equipment and experience.
Book direct by contacting the hut well in advance. July and August are busy; aim to reserve at least 4 weeks ahead for summer weekends. The hut may have limited phone signal—email works better. Half-board (dinner and breakfast included) is standard, so confirm meal arrangements when booking.
