Plan de Corones

Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
About
Plan de Corones sits at 2231m on the Plan de Corones plateau in Valle Pusteria. Reach it by cable car from Riscone (summer and winter) or via hiking trails from the surrounding area—most approaches take 1.5–3 hours depending on your start point. The plateau offers rolling terrain suitable for families and a network of marked trails for varied hiking ability. The hut was built in 1895 and now functions as both a mountain refuge and small hotel.
The hut has 20 beds across simple rooms. Meals are served daily—expect hearty Alpine fare. Drinking water is available, and there are shower facilities. The hut stays staffed through summer; exact dates depend on snow cover and demand, so check before planning an off-season visit. No WiFi, which means genuine time away from screens. The location works well for day hikes in the Dolomites, mountain biking on the plateau, and family outings.
Book direct by email or phone using the CAI hut network (rifugi.cai.it). July and August fill fast—reserve 6–8 weeks ahead for these months. June, September, and early October are quieter but still reliable. Confirm the opening date in spring if you're planning a shoulder-season trip.
