About
Ristoro San Martino sits at 1084m on the edge of the Lombardy Alps, within easy reach of Milan and Como. Access is straightforward: drive to the trailhead near Asso or hike up from the valley floor in 2 to 3 hours depending on your route. The hut works as a day stop or overnight base for walks across the lower Alpine foothills.
The ristoro functions as a mountain inn rather than a full rifugio. It serves meals and drinks to hikers and day-trippers, with basic overnight accommodation available. Expect simple beds, shared facilities, and hearty food. Opening hours vary by season—confirm before planning an overnight. The hut sits in good hiking country; day walks branch out to higher peaks and ridge traverses across the region.
Book direct by email or phone. During weekends and holidays (especially summer weekends and school holidays), call ahead to check bed availability and confirm meal service. Midweek visits are usually straightforward. The hut has no formal association with CAI or major Alpine clubs, so there's no online booking system—contact them directly with your dates and group size.
