Refuge Luigi Pellarini
5.0Rifugio Luigi Pellarini
About
The hut has 30 beds across simple rooms. The kitchen serves hearty meals on request—book ahead if you want dinner. Water comes from the spring outside. There's no shower, but you'll find basic washing facilities. The rifugio runs year-round, though expect reduced staffing and fewer facilities November to March. Winter approaches require avalanche awareness and proper gear.
Contact Rifugio Luigi Pellarini directly by phone or email to book. The hut fills quickly during July and August, especially on weekends—book at least 6 weeks ahead for peak season. Outside summer, booking a few days in advance usually works. The keeper is responsive to email but phone calls during cooking hours (usually 12–14:00 or 18–20:00) are more reliable. Half-board (bed and dinner) is standard; full board is available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Location
Guided trips nearby
Not walking in? These run in the same valley and are worth a day.
- Bovec: Canyon Učja — The biggest zipline park in Europe 3 hours · from €80 · 4.9★ (794 reviews) Ten ziplines across a side canyon with big Soča valley views; pure adrenaline rather than hiking, and not for anyone uneasy about heights or harnesses.
- From Bovec: Premium Rafting on Soča River with Photo Service 3 hours · from €57 · 4.9★ (588 reviews) The most-reviewed rafting run on the Soča and beginner-friendly, but the water is snowmelt-cold well into summer and the "premium" tag mostly means better base facilities and photos.
- From Ljubljana: Guided Day Tour to Soča and Kranjska Gora 10.5 hours · from €114 · 4.9★ (874 reviews) The best-reviewed way to reach Kobarid and the WWI front from the capital without a car, with a short walk to Kozjak waterfall — but it is a ten-hour day in a vehicle for a few short stops.
- From Bovec: Sušec Stream Canyoning in the Soča Valley 3.5 hours · from €62 · 4.9★ (236 reviews) The gentlest of the Bovec canyoning options and fine for confident first-timers, though you will be jumping into cold pools and abseiling, so it is not a gorge walk.
