About
Rifugio Alpe di Peurett sits at 1,745m in the Bergamo Alps of Lombardy. Reach it from the village of Rota d'Imagna via a hiking trail that takes roughly 2.5 hours. The route climbs steadily through forest and alpine meadow, gaining 600m elevation. Winter access depends on snow conditions.
The rifugio is a small, basic mountain shelter. It provides drinking water and basic overnight accommodation. Expect a rustic alpine experience rather than modern comfort. The hut operates seasonally—typically June through September—and serves hikers tackling routes in the surrounding Bergamo peaks. This is a working base for mountain exploration, not a destination in itself.
Contact the managing club directly before visiting. Check conditions and opening dates with CAI Bergamo or local alpine clubs. The hut fills quickly during summer weekends, particularly July and August. Book at least 4 weeks ahead for those months. Bring a sleeping bag, warm layers, and food supplies—the rifugio may not provide meals. Verify current opening status and facilities before you travel, as staffing and services at smaller rifugi can change seasonally.
