The Col du Palet refuge is a mountain refuge located at 2,587 m above sea level, in the Vanoise massif, in the French department of Savoy.

It is open and guarded for the summer season from mid-June to the end of September and for spring skiing from mid-February to the end of April.

The bivouac is authorized within the limits of an area determined by the Vanoise National Park, which owns the refuge, in order to preserve the local fauna and flora.

The refuge is accessible in unguarded mode during the month of October and the first fifteen days of June. Wood, gas, dishes, and blankets are available for hikers on site, but there is no running water. Payment of a fee is requested.

The refuge is located at the intersection of three valleys (Tignes, Champagny and Peisey-Nancroix) so the refuge enjoys an exceptional location and a panorama on the north face of the highest peak of the Vanoise: the Grande Casse.

In 2016 a small, rustic refuge. Showers and toilets are still very simple. Very nice and polite hospitality. You are not allowed to camp at every refuge in the Vanoise - it was allowed here.

There are benches with tables, a toilet and a water source which is not undrinkable but has the inscription that the water is not monitored.
