About
Malga Campello sits at 2,019m on the Paganella Plateau in Trentino-Alto Adige. Reach it from Andalo via the Paganella access road or the hiking trail from Fai della Paganella, which takes 2.5–3 hours. The route climbs through mixed woodland and alpine meadow with steady elevation gain. Winter access may be restricted depending on snow conditions.
This is a working alpine dairy, not a staffed mountain hut. The malga produces local cheese and dairy products during summer months (June to September). Basic refreshments and locally-made products are available when the dairy is operational. No overnight accommodation or cooked meals. The setting offers straightforward access to Paganella's plateau walking terrain, with views across Trentino valleys. Facilities are minimal—toilets and basic shelter only.
Visit during summer months when dairy production is active. Phone ahead to confirm opening hours and what products are available. The malga operates seasonally, so weather and staffing affect access. Come with supplies if planning a longer plateau walk, as food options are limited to what the dairy offers.
