Bivouac Adamone

Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
About
Bivacco Adamone sits at 1,458m in the Val di Fiemme, an hour's walk from Passo Rolle along marked trails. The approach is straightforward—a steady climb from the pass through larch forest, gaining 400m over roughly two hours from lower valley trailheads. This is a working mountaineer's base, not a destination hut.
The bivouac sleeps 12 in a single room with bunk beds. Flush toilets function year-round; there's no kitchen or meals service. Bring all food and cooking fuel. Water comes from a nearby spring. The hut opens June through September, and weather dictates shoulder-season reliability. The location makes it useful for climbers targeting the Pale di San Martino massif and ridge traverses across the Dolomites.
Book directly with the managing CAI group or call ahead to confirm occupancy. Summer weekends fill quickly June through August—contact 3–4 weeks in advance if you need guaranteed beds. The bivouac is unmanned, so arrive with cash and leave payment in the honesty box, or arrange advance access with CAI Cavalese.

Frequently Asked Questions
Bivacco Adamone is a simple bivouac with 12 beds and no warden service—first-come, first-served is the norm. Check rifugi.net or contact CAI Trento for current status before heading up, as conditions and access vary seasonally.
It's open year-round as an unstaffed bivouac; flush toilets function in winter, but you're self-sufficient. Check conditions on cai.it before winter visits—snow and avalanche risk make access unreliable November to April.
Start from Passo Rolle (1,971m) and follow marked trails north through larch forest; it's roughly one hour to the bivouac, or two hours from lower valley trailheads with 400m elevation gain. The route is straightforward and well-marked.
Bivacco Adamone has 12 bunks in one room, year-round flush toilets, and water from a nearby source. There's no kitchen, no meals, and no warden—bring all food, a stove, fuel, and be prepared to cook for yourself.
No—it's a working mountaineer's base for experienced hikers and climbers. The lack of meals, warden, and facilities makes it unsuitable for families or those needing support. Use it as a technical climbing or ski touring staging point.
