When do 2027 reservations open

• hut-reservation.org (SAC huts) (15 huts here): The portal publishes no opening date, and the SAC states no common rule, so each hut opens the coming season on its own schedule. Watch the hut's own page on the portal. At staffed SAC huts a reservation fee of CHF 10 per guest per night is planned from 1 January 2027 at the earliest, taken at booking, credited against the stay and not refunded on cancellation. Solidarity contributions also start in 2027, CHF 3 a night for adult members and CHF 5 for adult non-members, running to 2029. Checked 27 August 2026. The portal itself publishes no opening date, so treat the timing as unconfirmed.
• hut-reservation.org (1 hut here): No single date. Each hut opens the coming season for booking when it chooses, which the DAV puts as early as December and sometimes not until March; most reservations are made between mid-February and late April. As a rule beds can be reserved until 18:00 on the evening before arrival. Cancelled places go back on the calendar, often only a few days before the date. Checked against the portal on 27 August 2026.
• Independent refuges (27 huts here): No portal and no common date. Each refuge takes bookings on its own terms; check the hut's own page or contact details.

Once a portal opens, the Alpes-bernoises map in HutScanner will show which of these huts still have beds on consecutive nights, so you can check a chain before you book on the portal.
