About
Rifugio Eita sits at 1703m in the Val Schnotting near Hinterrhein in Graubünden. The hut is accessible by foot from Hinterrhein in about 2 hours. Approach from the valley floor on marked trails that climb steadily through mixed forest and open meadows. The location puts you at the heart of easier day-walking terrain, with multiple options for half and full-day loops on surrounding ridges and to mountain lakes.
The hut has 15 beds spread across shared dormitories. Rifugio Eita serves home-cooked meals and stocks basic supplies. WiFi is available. The hut operates year-round but is quieter in winter; confirm opening dates before planning a winter visit. This is a simple, working mountain hut—not a destination for luxury, but reliable shelter with good local knowledge from the operators.
Book directly by phone. The small capacity means summer weekends fill fast, especially July and August. Book 2–3 months ahead for these periods. Spring and autumn see fewer visitors and offer easier booking slots. Confirm meal options when you reserve, as the kitchen adjusts output based on guest numbers.
