About

Rifugio Cometti sits at 1,720m in the Bergamo Alps, serving hikers moving through the mid-altitude valleys of Lombardy. Most approach from Roncobello or the Val Brembana—expect 2.5 to 3 hours on foot depending on your start point. The hut works best as a basecamp for day walks across rolling ridge terrain, or as a overnight stop on longer traverses linking the Orobian valleys.

The hut has 24 beds split across simple shared rooms. Meals are traditional—expect polenta, local cheeses, and mountain stews rather than fussy cooking. Water comes direct from the spring. There's no generator noise after 22:00. The season runs June to September, with weekends busy from mid-July through August. Facilities are basic but maintained. The hut closes in winter.

Book directly by phone. Call at least 3 weeks ahead for weekends in July and August, especially if you're arriving with a group larger than four. Weekday visits in June and September rarely fill. The rifugio is managed by a family operation—they appreciate advance notice of dietary needs and exact arrival time.
