About
Bivacco Case di Bles sits at 2,080m in the Trentino-Alto Adige region, accessible via hiking trails from the lower valleys. The approach typically takes 3–4 hours depending on your starting point. This is a basic mountain bivouac: expect a simple shelter with minimal amenities rather than a staffed rifugio.
The bivouac sleeps 12 in basic dormitory conditions. There is no guardian, no meals, and no running water. Bring everything you need: food, water, warm layers, and a sleeping bag. The shelter provides four walls and a roof—that is all. It works best as an emergency refuge or a base for early-morning climbs into adjacent peaks. Winter access is possible but requires winter mountaineering skills; the hut is unheated.
Contact CAI Manerbio directly for access information and current conditions. The hut is managed by volunteers and may have restricted opening periods. Always verify access before you go. Bring a headtorch, stove, fuel, and all supplies. This is not a place for casual day-hikers; come prepared for self-sufficiency at altitude.
