About Vanoise
The Vanoise massif in the French Alps holds a dense network of staffed refuges linking the Parc National de la Vanoise with the surrounding valleys. Park huts book through the Vanoise reservation portal; CAF-owned refuges book through the FFCAM system, so a single traverse often spans two booking sites. Reservations are mandatory during the staffed season and two to four months ahead is usually enough for July and August.

Planning a route through Refuge de la Glière
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 Glière there are 8 onward huts within a day's walk, listed above, inside a Vanoise network of 38 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.
Refuge de la Glière books online but publishes no calendar HutScanner can read, so a route through it is planned around the 26 huts in Vanoise that do publish one, and this night is confirmed with the hut itself. Plan a multi-night route from Refuge de la Glière.
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.
