alpine huts

High-altitude lodgings

Alpine huts are small shelters built in mountain regions, typically offering basic accommodation for hikers, climbers, and skiers.

They range from unmanned emergency shelters to staffed lodges with meals and beds.

In Europe, networks of alpine huts enable multi-day treks through the Alps: We stayed in alpine huts along the trail.
