Casa Carlì
1.5About
Casa Carlì sits at 650m in the foothills above Lecco, Lombardy, serving as a base for day hikes and training climbs on nearby rock and mixed terrain. Reach it in 1.5 hours from Lecco town by trail, or 2.5 hours from Piani Resinelli. The hut marks the start of routes up the Resegone ridge and accesses limestone crags popular with climbers preparing for Alpine rock work.
The hut offers 25 beds in shared rooms, a small restaurant serving pasta and local Lombardy dishes, and basic facilities including shower and toilet. It operates year-round, though staffing varies in winter—call ahead. The pace is relaxed; most guests are day-trippers or weekend climbers rather than through-hikers. Food is simple and filling. The SAC (Sezione Alpinisti Comaschi) manages it and maintains the surrounding routes.
Book directly with the hut by phone or email. Weekends from April to October fill quickly, especially if local climbing clubs are active. Summer Sundays often require booking several weeks ahead. Winter weekday visits rarely need advance reservation. The hut has no online booking system; contact them directly for availability and to arrange meals.
