About
Rifugio Roccoli Lorla sits at 1,463m on the east side of Lake Como in Lombardy, above the village of Dervio. The easiest approach is from Dervio itself—a steep hiking trail climbs about 500m vertical in roughly 2 to 2.5 hours. You can also reach it from higher trails across the ridge system if you're linking longer routes through the Piani dei Resinelli or the Grigna massif.
The hut sleeps 50 and operates year-round, though you should confirm opening dates before winter visits. It serves hot meals and basic provisions. Showers are available—a real advantage at this elevation. The location makes it useful as a base for day hikes across the limestone ridges, or as a mid-route stop if you're traversing the lake-edge mountain chain.
Book directly with the Dervio section of CAI by phone or email. July and August fill quickly, especially weekends; aim to reserve 4–6 weeks ahead for summer dates. Weekend capacity tightens from May through September. Email ahead even if you think you might drop by—staffing levels determine whether walk-ins are accepted.
