Cold enough that sleeping in an open bivvy is difficult. But if you pick better spots than I used to you can get quite a bit warmer with the same bit of kit. The more walls and preferably some kind of roof the better.
Avoid the mountain top, avoid the bottom (ooh nurse) and stop where you'll have to start with a climb rather than a descent or you'll freeze even more.

Struggling a bit with how to prepare for some outdoor camping, especially as I've never done it near these Alp-y type things. How cold do you expect it to get at night? Assuming you're not at a ridiculous altitude).
