The facilitie has historical value: built in the 1950s by the Associazione di Torino Giovane Montagna (Turin Young Mountain Association), it has hosted excursions and mountaineers for years. From 2025, a new chapter will begin as it becomes the Chapy refuge in Courmayeur, located at the entrance to Val Ferret at an altitude of 1,467 m.
Nestled in Val Ferret and surrounded by one of the most spectacular views of Mont Blanc, the refuge can accommodate 25 people in rooms for up to 4 people and is a strategic and convenient stop for those travelling the Tour du Mont Blanc.
Double or single rooms are available. The recently renovated toilets and showers are shared. Guests have access to a dining room, a large outdoor terrace and a living room.
Half-board service is provided and packed lunches (picnics) are available.
