Bivouac Casinello di Blumone

Bivacco Casinello di Blumone sits at 2,099m in the Trentino-Alto Adige region, serving as a basic shelter for mountaineers and hikers moving through steep terrain. Access is from the Val di Fassa side; most parties approach via the Fedare valley in 4–5 hours from lower trailheads. The location puts you on established routes linking higher peaks and ridges in the Dolomites. Snow and rockfall risk increase in winter and early spring, so approach timing matters for safety.

This is a staffed bivouac, not a full rifugio. It sleeps 4 people on basic bunks and offers emergency shelter, water, and minimal cooking facilities. The CAI maintains it as a waypoint for experienced mountaineers rather than a destination hut. No meals or hot showers. The season runs roughly June through September, weather-dependent. Winter access is possible only for experienced parties with winter mountaineering skills and appropriate gear.

Book through the CAI directly or via rifugi.net. Contact your local CAI section in advance, especially if you need to confirm water availability or recent conditions. July and August fill quickly if the hut becomes known locally. Outside peak season, parties often find it unstaffed—bring what you need and respect the space. This hut demands self-sufficiency and good route-finding skills.
