Outside staffed periods the operator describes a 12-place emergency room with no heating or water. The wood stove is out of service and must not be used; gas may be exhausted, so bring your own stove and fuel. The operator recommends staffed-period visits; exact current opening and beds remain unconfirmed. Camping within 500 metres of the hut is forbidden because of drinking-water protection. This summer reference supplies no present snow or path clearance. Source read 2026-10-29.
