A loop heat pipe includes a liquid pipe and a vapor pipe that connect an evaporator and a condenser and form a loop-shaped passage. The liquid pipe includes two outermost metal layers, and inner metal layers stacked between the outer metal layers. The inner metal layers include one or more flow passages in which a working fluid flows, and a porous body communicating with the one or more flow passages. One inner metal layer includes a first bottomed groove opening to a side of another inner metal layer adjacent to the one inner metal layer, and the other inner metal layer includes a second bottomed groove opening to a side of the one inner metal layer. The one or more flow passages include a flow passage formed by the first and second bottomed grooves that are arranged to oppose and communicate with each other in a thickness direction.
