Bivouac Stalon De Bon
1.1Bivacco Stalon De Bon
1,848m
Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
About
Bivacco Stalon De Bon sits at 1848m in the Brenta Dolomites of Trentino-Alto Adige. Reach it from Molveno via the Val d'Algone trail in 2.5 to 3 hours. The approach is steady forest hiking that opens to alpine meadow near the hut. This is a working mountain refuge, not a day-use shelter.
The bivacco is a simple, self-managed mountain hut with 8 beds across two small rooms. There's no guardian, no meals, and no running water. Bring a sleeping bag and pad—bunk bases are basic. A wood stove provides warmth in shoulder seasons. The hut works as a base for traversing the Brenta ridge or accessing surrounding peaks like Cima Tosa (2,091m). Summer climbing routes in the limestone above the hut are popular with experienced parties.
Book directly with CAI Trentino or check rifugi.net for availability and current access status. The hut operates year-round, but winter and early spring require winter mountaineering skills. July and August are busy—arrive midweek if possible. Bring fuel, food, and a headlamp. The hut has a logbook; sign in and note any maintenance issues you find.
