Peretti Griva
4.1About
Peretti Griva sits at 1,810m in the Cottian Alps of Piedmont. Reach it from the Pian del Colle trailhead near Oulx: allow 2.5 hours hiking time via the Vallone della Griva. The hut works as a base for access to higher peaks and as a stopping point on ridge traverses across this section of the Alps.
The rifugio has 30 beds across mixed dormitories and a small number of double rooms. Meals focus on Piedmont mountain cooking—expect hearty soups, pasta, and local cheese. The kitchen operates full-service in summer months (June to September); winter opening depends on snow conditions and staffing. Basic facilities include running water and heating. This is a working hut, not a resort: priorities are shelter, food, and mountain access.
Book directly by phone with the hut keeper. Call ahead even for shoulder season (May and October) if you're coming in groups larger than four. July and August can fill on weekends; phone 1-2 weeks ahead for these periods. Winter access requires confirmation—snow can isolate the hut for stretches, so call first. Half-board (bed plus dinner and breakfast) is standard; packed lunches available on request.
