About

Rifugio Città di Lissone sits at 2,013m on the Paganella Plateau in the Brenta Dolomites. The hut is reached from the Molveno valley via the Rifugio Fedare trail (2.5–3 hours from Molveno village) or from Andalo on the opposite side. The approach gains 800m and follows clear paths through larch forest and alpine meadow.

The refuge hosts 70 beds across multiple rooms. The kitchen serves three meals daily: breakfast, lunch, and a hearty dinner with local Trentino dishes. The bar stocks beer, grappa, and coffee. Hot showers are available. The hut operates year-round but is quietest in November and March. Summer weekends and August fill fast. The management accepts day visitors and serves meals to non-residents.

Book by phone directly with the hut. Contact details are available through rifugio.it and the CAI Lissone sezione website. July and August require booking 4–6 weeks ahead. May through October is the main hiking season on the Paganella, when the hut works as a base for ridge walks and climbs toward the Bocchetta del Tenente. Winter access depends on snow conditions; call ahead if planning a winter visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book at least 2–3 weeks ahead during peak season (July–August), especially for weekends; shoulder seasons need less notice. Contact by phone or check rifugi.net and cai.it for availability.
Typically open June through September, with staffed service during main hiking season; confirm exact dates by phone or online as weather and staffing can shift the season.
From Molveno village, take the Rifugio Fedare trail (2.5–3 hours, 800m elevation gain) through larch forest and alpine meadow; the alternative approach from Andalo is similar.
Three meals daily—breakfast, lunch, and dinner featuring Trentino cuisine—plus a bar; 70 beds across multiple rooms with basic mountain hut facilities (expect shared bathrooms, no hot showers).
Yes, it's good for hiking beginners: the 800m approach is steady but not technical, and clear marked trails make navigation straightforward for those comfortable with a half-day mountain walk.
