About

Rifugio Alpe Grem sits at 1165m in the Val Bregaglia, on the south side of the Alps where granite peaks rise above forested valleys. The hut is a 2.5-hour walk from Soglio, climbing steadily through larch and stone pine. You can also approach from Castasegna (Swiss side) in about 3 hours via the Val Bregaglia trail. This is the natural base for exploring the valley's ridges and peaks, with routes to Pizzo Badile and Cengalo within striking distance.

The hut has 32 beds across simple rooms. Half-board is available and the kitchen serves hearty mountain food using local ingredients. There's no WiFi—this is deliberate. Showers are available. The refuge operates year-round but is quietest from November to March. Summer weekends and July–August fill quickly. The hut sits on a working alpine pasture, so you'll see cattle grazing in the meadow.

Book directly by phone. Call ahead to confirm current opening dates and to arrange arrival times. Groups of 8 or more should phone at least a month in advance. July and August require booking 6–8 weeks ahead, especially for weekends. The hut prefers calls to email for reservations.
