Planning a route through Refuge de la Cougourde
Booking one hut is the easy half. The work is the chain: every night needs a bed, at a hut you can walk to from the one before, on consecutive dates, and one full night sends you back to the start. From Refuge de la Cougourde there are 5 onward huts within a day's walk, listed above, inside an Argentera network of 9 huts. HutScanner searches that network for a sequence that works on your dates, rather than leaving you to try the huts one at a time.
This hut's calendar is one HutScanner can read, so a route through it can be checked night by night, along with 5 other huts in Argentera. Plan a multi-night route from Refuge de la Cougourde.
If you plan trips through ChatGPT or Claude, they can run this same search for you without opening the app, over the regions HutScanner has reviewed by hand. How that works is described in using HutScanner with AI assistants, and the endpoint is documented in the OpenAPI spec.
