Refugios de montaña en Zermatt

Zermatt Alpine Huts

This collection features high-altitude accommodations surrounding Zermatt, ranging from the modern, sustainable Monte Rosa Hut to the Capanna Regina Margherita—Europe’s highest building at 4,554 meters. These sites include both full-service Swiss Alpine Club (SAC) huts and remote emergency bivouacs like the Solvay Hut on the Matterhorn’s Hörnli ridge. They serve as essential staging points for mountaineers tackling the 4,000-meter peaks of the Pennine Alps, offering basic lodging amidst glaciers and steep rock faces.
