About
Rifugio Monte Stino sits at 2,512m in the Dolomites, above the Val di Non. Reach it on foot from Livo in 3.5 hours via the marked trail that climbs steadily through larch forest and pasture. The final approach crosses open alpine meadow with views south into the Val di Non. Alternative access from Malga Nara takes 2.5 hours and is less steep.
The hut sleeps 60 across mixed and private rooms. Half-board is standard—hearty mountain food at lunch and dinner. The kitchen serves water but no hot showers. Winter closure typically runs November through April, though verify dates before traveling. The rifugio operates as a working farm for part of the year, so conditions change seasonally.
Book directly by phone or email at least 8 weeks ahead for July and August weekends. July and August are consistently full. June and September offer better availability with excellent weather. The hut sits on the SAT (Società degli Alpinisti Trentini) network, so you can book through their system as well. Arrive before 18:00 to confirm your reservation and get settled before dinner service.
