Mountain refuge in the heart of the Mercantour National Park, located in the Fontanalba valley, one of the two valleys containing the famous rock engravings of Mont Bego, along with those of Les Merveilles.

The Fontanalba Mountain Hut is the ideal stopover for hikers seeking an authentic mountain experience in the mountains and high mountains. Nestled in the heart of a larch forest at an elevation of 2,018 meters, the building—which dates back to 1939 and belongs to the Nice Ski Club—comes into view. Recently renovated and reopened in 2019, the refuge and its caretaker—Pauline Ferrier—offer you a base camp from which to embark on hikes of all difficulty levels and explore the valley at your own pace! Not far from the refuge, the Mercantour National Park’s bivouac area lets you enjoy the surroundings and the refuge’s amenities. Hot meals, picnics, breakfast with homemade jam… book them hassle-free in advance through our reservation system! The same goes for nights in our comfortable dorms with individual beds! Just stopping by for a day? No problem! During the day, the refuge offers omelets, salads, and blueberry jam tart to help you recharge! Plus a selection of drinks, some of which are locally sourced! Make the most of your summer by coming to explore the Fontanalbe Valley and its mountain hut during its open season!
