The Britannia Hut (German: Britanniahütte) is a mountain hut of the Swiss Alpine Club, located south of Saas-Almagell in the canton of Valais. The hut lies at a height of 3,030 metres above sea level, at the foot of the Allalinhorn near the Allalin Glacier, in the Mischabel massif. It is a starting point for the ascents of Strahlhorn, Rimpfischhorn and Allalinhorn.
The hut is easily accessible from the Felskinn station via a trail on the Fee Glacier (1 hour).
