Casera Feron
2.2About
Casera Feron sits at 992m on the eastern slopes of the Carnic Alps, accessed via the Val Pesarina from Sutrio in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. The approach takes 2.5 to 3 hours on marked trails, gaining roughly 600m through beech forest and alpine pasture. This is straightforward hiking terrain, suitable for anyone with basic fitness.
The hut is a working mountain dairy (casera) that also accommodates trekkers and mountaineers. It has 20 beds split between simple dorm rooms. Meals are available—request half or full board when booking. The kitchen serves regional Friuli cooking. Water comes from natural springs. There are basic washrooms and no shower facilities. The hut operates year-round but is quieter October to May; verify opening dates before traveling in shoulder season.
Contact CAI directly to book. Summer weekends and July fill weeks ahead, so call or email by May for guaranteed space. The hut sits on a junction of regional hiking routes, making it a natural waypoint for multi-day tours across the Carnic Alps toward the Grivola area. Consider it as part of a longer traverse rather than a standalone destination.
