Rifugio Sanremo is a refuge in the Ligurian Alps in Italy. Located at 2,054 m, is the highest mountain hut in Liguria.

History

[edit]

Rifugio Sanremo was built in 1950 and enlarged in 1984 with an upper floor containing a 30-bed dorm. It was dedicated in 2012 to Agostino Gauzzi (nicknamed "Tino"), an Italian alpinist who was among the founders of the Sanremo branch of Club Alpino Italiano.[2]

Access

[edit]

The hut can be reached from La Brigue, France, and from Briga Alta and Montegrosso Pian Latte, Italy. It is located on the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri.[3]
