Most refuges are open all year but it is worth checking in the guide books to check which refuges close for the winter.
L'Epirit du Chemin in St Jean is open from 1st April to 30th September. The volunteers at Roncesvalles told us that the refuge there, like many other refuges, is closed from the end of October until May. (Perhaps this is why nobody answered his banging on the doors when poor Santos stumbled into Roncesvalles at midnight after struggling in the snow from St Jean Pied de Port in April this year??)
