[Regions](/regions/) › Beaufortain [Open in the HutScanner map](/app?region=beaufortain) # Beaufortain 26 huts · 184 walking routes · FR · season 1 June 2026 to 30 September 2026 26 huts connected by 184 walking routes in the Beaufortain massif. 9 of 26 huts in this region have live-checked availability. ## When do 2027 reservations open - **[FFCAM central reservation](https://centrale.ffcam.fr/index.php?_lang=FR)** (3 huts here): No single date. Each refuge opens its own online calendar from late January onwards; most FFCAM refuge sites publish a guarding season but no booking-opening date at all. A deposit is paid online at booking. Cancellations inside the refuge's contractual period are not refunded. Checked 27 August 2026. The portal itself publishes no opening date, so treat the timing as unconfirmed. - **[Mon Tour du Mont-Blanc](https://www.montourdumontblanc.com/fr/faq)** (3 huts here): Reservations for summer 2027 open on 15 October 2026, for every refuge in the association. In high season member refuges are often full several weeks ahead. A booking can be changed from the customer account up to 30 days before arrival; deposits are partly refunded beyond 30 days and not at all inside it. Checked against the portal on 27 August 2026. - **[Independent refuges](https://www.refuges.info/)** (17 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. - **Refuges with a booking calendar on their own website** (3 huts here): No shared portal and no common date. Each of these refuges runs its own booking calendar on its own website and opens the coming season when it chooses; the hut page here links straight to it. Once a portal opens, the [Beaufortain map in HutScanner](/app?region=beaufortain) will show which of these huts still have beds on consecutive nights, so you can check a chain before you book on the portal. ## Huts in the Beaufortain network | Hut | Altitude | Sleeps | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Auberge La Roselette](/huts/auberge-la-roselette/) | 1873 m | 18 | live-checked | | [Auberge de Valezan](/huts/auberge-de-valezan/) | 1190 m | 18 | book online | | [Chalet du Berger](/huts/chalet-du-berger/) | 1815 m | 17 | book online | | [Gite Pollen](/huts/gite-pollen/) | 1250 m | 25 | book online | | [Gîte de Molliessoulaz](/huts/gite-de-molliessoulaz/) | 980 m | 15 | contact hut | | [Refuge Caf des Contamines-Montjoie](/huts/refuge-caf-des-contamines-montjoie/) | 1164 m | 24 | live-checked | | [Refuge de Bellastat](/huts/refuge-de-bellastat/) | 1915 m | 12 | book online | | [Refuge de Nant-Borrant](/huts/refuge-de-nant-borrant/) | 1459 m | 35 | live-checked | | [Refuge de Petit-Tetraz](/huts/refuge-de-petit-tetraz/) | 1700 m | 25 | monitored | | [Refuge de Plan Mya](/huts/refuge-de-plan-mya/) | 1860 m | 24 | book online | | [Refuge de Porcherey](/huts/refuge-de-porcherey/) | 1717 m | 19 | book online | | [Refuge de Presset](/huts/refuge-de-presset/) | 2514 m | 30 | live-checked | | [Refuge de l'Alpage](/huts/refuge-de-l-alpage/) | 1991 m | 28 | book online | | [Refuge de l'Écondu](/huts/refuge-de-l-econdu/) | 1884 m | 18 | | | [Refuge de la Balme](/huts/refuge-de-la-balme/) | 2000 m | 28 | book online | | [Refuge de la Balme](/huts/refuge-de-la-balme-beaufortain/) | 1706 m | 40 | live-checked | | [Refuge de la Coire](/huts/refuge-de-la-coire/) | 2059 m | 36 | contact hut | | [Refuge de la Croix de Pierre](/huts/refuge-de-la-croix-de-pierre/) | 1973 m | 18 | book online | | [Refuge de la Gittaz](/huts/refuge-de-la-gittaz/) | 1660 m | 31 | contact hut | | [Refuge de la Nova](/huts/refuge-de-la-nova/) | 1550 m | 70 | book online | | [Refuge des Arolles](/huts/refuge-des-arolles/) | 1900 m | 20 | contact hut | | [Refuge des Prés](/huts/refuge-des-pres/) | 1935 m | 30 | live-checked | | [Refuge du Lachat](/huts/refuge-du-lachat/) | 1555 m | 32 | contact hut | | [Refuge du Mont-Joly](/huts/refuge-du-mont-joly/) | 2002 m | 15 | live-checked | | [Refuge du Nant du Beurre](/huts/refuge-du-nant-du-beurre/) | 2085 m | 32 | book online | | [Refuge du Plan de la Lai](/huts/refuge-du-plan-de-la-lai/) | 1822 m | 19 | live-checked | ## Planning a hut-to-hut route in the Beaufortain Booking one hut is the easy half. The work is the chain: across these 26 huts and 184 walking routes, 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. HutScanner searches the whole network for a sequence that works on your dates, shifting the dates or swapping in a neighbouring hut when a chain does not hold, rather than leaving you to try the huts one at a time. 9 of the 26 huts here publish a calendar HutScanner can read, so those nights are checked rather than guessed; the rest are mapped and routable, and confirmed with the hut. 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](/guides/ai-assistants-and-hutscanner/), and the endpoint is documented in the [OpenAPI spec](/api/openapi.json).
