Bivacco Sigot, Mountain shelter in Exilles, Italy
The Bivacco Sigot stands at 2921 meters elevation in the Cottian Alps, providing basic accommodations for mountaineers traversing the alpine terrain.
Built in 1997, the shelter was created as a memorial for a member of the Susa Section who died during a winter climb to Grand Hoche in 1994.
The construction involved volunteers from the Susa section of the Italian Alpine Club and members of the National Alpine Rescue Corps, demonstrating local community engagement.
The shelter operates year-round on a self-service basis, offering protection from weather conditions along the 13.6-kilometer trail from Rifugio Levi Molinari.
The Province of Turin and Alta Valle di Susa Mountain Community jointly contributed to establish this strategic rest point in the high-altitude terrain.
