About
Rifugio Renato Brusa Perona sits at 1,531m in the Valais region of the Swiss Alps. The hut serves as a base for hiking in the surrounding terrain and sits accessible via established trails from the valleys below. Most parties reach it on foot in 2–3 hours from the nearest road access. The approach is moderate and well-marked.
The refuge operates as a simple mountain shelter with 22 beds across multiple rooms. Meals are available—book these when you reserve your accommodation. The hut has basic facilities: heating, running water, and a common kitchen area. There is no WiFi. The hut typically operates year-round, though you should confirm opening dates before travel, especially in winter. The refuge is managed by CAI Gravellona Toce, part of the Italian Alpine Club network.
Book directly by email or phone with the managing organisation. Summer weekends fill quickly, so contact the hut at least two weeks ahead for July and August. The hut enforces a minimum two-night stay during peak season. Bring cash—card payment availability is limited. The refuge is quiet outside summer months, making shoulder seasons ideal if you prefer fewer people.
