About
Rifugio Val Di Fumo sits at 1,997m in the Val Di Fumo valley, part of the Brenta Dolomites. Access from the Molveno side takes 2.5–3 hours on a well-marked trail that climbs steadily through forest and alpine pasture. From the Val D'Algone trailhead, allow 2 hours. The hut makes a natural base for ridge walks toward Cima Tosa and links to the Brenta Alta trail system.
The rifugio sleeps 50 in shared dormitories. Half-board meals feature Trentino cuisine, with packed lunches available. The kitchen serves only hut residents and those on the half-board plan. Water comes from the valley spring. The hut operates June through September, with weekends extended to early October depending on snow conditions. Staff speak Italian and basic English.
Book directly by phone as early as possible. July and August fill quickly—aim for 8–10 weeks ahead for guaranteed beds. June and September are quieter. Phone confirmation is required; deposits are typically not taken. Arrive by late afternoon. The hut is managed by local Trentino alpinists and maintains CAI standards for facilities and safety.
