About
Cason di Val d'Onge sits at 1,944m in the Carnian Alps of northeastern Italy, above the Val d'Onge near Forni di Sopra. Reach it from the Passo Ghedina trailhead via the GTA (Grande Traversata delle Alpi) route—a 3-hour approach mostly on good paths. This hut works as a base for ridge traverses, scrambles to nearby 2,000m+ peaks, and longer Alpine crossings. The surrounding terrain mixes limestone cliffs with open ridges, giving you solid mountaineering options without requiring technical climbing.
The hut holds around 30 people in simple but comfortable rooms. The guardian serves hearty evening meals and breakfast. You get basic shower facilities and reliable water. The hut opens year-round but staff confirm presence mid-June through September. Outside summer months, contact ahead before arriving. The location means you're genuinely remote—no road access—so self-sufficiency matters.
Book directly with the hut by phone or email at least 2 weeks ahead. July and August fill quickly; aim for 4 weeks' notice for those months. Half-board (dinner and breakfast included) is standard. Pay in cash or confirm payment method when booking. The hut sits on established trail networks, so it suits both through-hikers tackling multi-week Alpine traverses and climbers doing short, sharp mountaineering weekends.
