About
Bivacco Silvio e Rudi sits at 1,347m in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region, accessed via the Valle d'Arzino. The approach takes 2.5–3 hours on foot from the nearest road access. This is a working bivouac: small, basic, and built for mountaineers moving fast through the Julian Alps. Most visitors use it as a waypoint rather than a destination.
The hut has 6 beds across two sleeping areas and a small shelter with basic supplies. There is no warden on site and no meals provided. Bring your own food and water. The bivouac offers emergency shelter and a place to sleep between days, nothing more. Opening season depends on snow conditions; typically available June to September. Winter access requires mountaineering skills.
This is a CAI-managed bivouac. Contact CAI Sacile directly for current conditions and any access restrictions. The hut fills quickly during summer weekends. Book your visit and confirm access at least one week ahead if possible, especially in July and August. Carry a headtorch, emergency supplies, and a map—access roads are unmarked in places. This is not a comfortable refuge; choose it only if you know what a bivouac means and need the location for your planned route.
