Greselin Paolo
1,920m
Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy
About
Greselin Paolo sits at 1920m in Val Compol, a side valley of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region in northeastern Italy. Approach from Monrupino or via the Val Compol trail; most hikers reach it in 3–4 hours from the valley floor. The hut is a basic Apollonio-style bivacco—a simple metal shelter designed for self-sufficiency.
The hut has 9 beds with mattresses and blankets, plus 9 emergency spots on the floor. There is no staffed guardian and no meals or drinking water on-site, but a spring lies 50m away. The shelter is open year-round but only staffed during summer months. Expect minimal facilities and bring your own food and fuel. This is a refuge for experienced hikers comfortable with basic mountain conditions.
Book by email or through rifugi.cai.it well before your trip. The hut is managed by CAI (Italian Alpine Club), and contact details are available on their website. Summer weekends fill quickly; plan ahead for July and August.
