The Peter and Catharine Whyte Hut, also known as the Peyto Hut, is an alpine hut located on the northern tip of the Wapta Icefield in Banff National Park. It is nicknamed the Peyto hut due to its proximity on the Peyto Glacier. The hut is maintained by the Alpine Club of Canada.

The hut sleeps 18 in the summer and 16 in the winter. It is equipped with propane powered lamps and stovetop.[1] There is a single outdoor drum toilet at this facility.
