Refuge Le Peuty
1.7
Valle d'Aosta, Italy
About
Rifugio Le Peuty sits at 2,532m in the Gran Paradiso massif, accessed via the Deeson valley. Most parties hike up from Pont in 3–3.5 hours, crossing alpine meadow and rocky terrain. The approach is steady but unmarked in places; bring a map. Winter access is possible but verify conditions before attempting.
The rifugio has 22 beds split across small rooms. Showers and flush toilets function year-round. Half-board (breakfast and dinner) is standard; the kitchen prepares simple, hearty food suited to hungry alpinists. The hut lies on hiking routes into the Gran Paradiso protected area and serves as a base for days up to the park's higher peaks. Open June to September, with limited winter weekends by arrangement.
Phone or email to book. Call several weeks ahead for July and August; these months fill reliably. June, September, and early October are quieter. The hut requests payment in advance or accepts cash on arrival. Confirm the current phone number and email via rifugio.net or contact the local CAI section in Aosta before planning your stay.
