The Giorgio Bertone refuge is located at an altitude of 2000 m. The setting is splendid, with Courmayeur and the peaks that surround it as a backdrop. Possibility to stay in half-board (dormitory or room) and to eat.

Hiking

The Bertone refuge is located in front of the imposing Mont Blanc, an hour and a half walk from Courmayeur. The Alta Via 1 of Valle d'Aosta passes through here.

Running

The Giorgio Bertone refuge can be reached via a challenging climb from Courmayeur, along a steep wooded slope on a serpentine path. On the other side there is a magnificent balcony that leads to Arnuova. Located at an altitude of 2,000 meters in the Aosta Valley, it offers a magnificent panorama of the Mont Blanc massif and Courmayeur below.

This structure is dedicated to Giorgio Bertone, a mountain guide who was part of the first Italian ascent of the southeast face of Yosemite Valley's Nose al Capitan.
