About

Ricovero Casera Bregolina Grande sits at 1858m in the Carnic Alps, accessible via the Passo della Mauria approach from the south or the Val Bregolina from the north. Hiking time from either approach runs 2–2.5 hours. The hut serves as a solid base for ridge walking and scrambling in the surrounding peaks, with direct access to Monte Plotta and the broader Carnic chain.

This is a basic mountain refuge managed by CAI. Expect simple dormitory accommodation with mattresses and blankets provided; bring your sleeping bag. The hut has running water and basic toilet facilities. Meals are available if pre-booked (contact ahead), or you can self-cater using the basic kitchen. The refuge operates year-round but gets limited use in winter; summer sees steady traffic from July through September. Capacity is modest—around 40 beds.

Contact CAI directly to book or confirm opening status before your visit. July and August demand advance booking, especially weekends. The hut's remote location and basic setup mean you're self-reliant on supplies; carry cash and don't expect luxury. This is genuine hut hiking, not a hotel stay.
