Tognola

Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
About
Tognola sits at 2,120m in the Lagorai range, accessible from multiple approaches. From Rifugio Sorgazza (1,720m) via Passo della Forcella, you'll hike 2-3 hours through open terrain. Alternatively, approach from Val di Sella or via the eastern ridgeline. The hut works as a mid-route shelter on multi-day Lagorai traverses or as a base for day hikes into the surrounding peaks and lakes.
The hut has 20-30 bed capacity spread across mixed dormitory rooms. The kitchen serves simple but reliable meals—expect polenta, pasta, risotto, and local cheese. Expect basic shared bathrooms with cold-water washing. The hut operates year-round but staffing is irregular outside summer months, so verify availability before traveling. Winter access is skiing or winter mountaineering only.
Book directly by phone or email at least 2-3 weeks ahead for July and August weekends. Mid-week visits outside peak season rarely need advance reservations. Confirm your arrival time and any dietary requirements when you book. The hut staff speak Italian primarily; basic English varies by season. Payment is cash or bank transfer—verify payment methods when booking.
