Dammahütte, Alpine mountain hut in Uri, Switzerland.
Dammahütte is a mountain hut located at 2438 meters elevation in the Uri Alps, providing accommodation for climbers and hikers. The facility sits at a key junction between several high peaks and glacial zones in the region.
The hut was founded by the Swiss Alpine Club to support mountaineers accessing the high routes of the Uri region. It became an important base for expeditions in this challenging mountain area.
The hut represents the Swiss tradition of alpine hospitality, managed by SAC Pilatus section to maintain mountaineering infrastructure in the Uri region.
Visitors should book in advance as the hut has limited beds and fills quickly during peak season. Sleeping bags and warm clothing are essential since the high elevation brings cold nights.
A small emergency room remains accessible year-round even as the main building undergoes major renovations through 2026. This provision ensures that emergency situations can still be handled during the construction period.
