Rifugio Torino, 3375 m

Rifugio Torino is a well-known high mountain hut located above Courmayeur in Italy, directly below Pointe Helbronner (3462 m) in the Mont Blanc massif. In winter, a winter room is open, providing access to glacier ski mountaineering tours in the Mont Blanc area. In summer, the hut is most easily reached from Courmayeur by the Skyway Monte Bianco cable car. It serves as a starting point for ski mountaineering tours to peaks such as Tour Ronde, Mont Blanc du Tacul, the Col du Tacul pass, or for the famous Vallée Blanche descent to the Mer de Glace and the train at Montenvers.
