About
Centro Studi Montani sits at 2,314m on the Asiago Plateau in the Veneto region. Reach it from Asiago town on foot in 2.5 hours via marked trails through beech forest, or drive most of the way and hike the final 30 minutes. The hut functions as a winter dormitory for mountaineers and hikers tackling the plateau's ridge routes and longer traverses.
The hut provides basic heated dormitory accommodation with shared facilities. Capacity is around 20–30 people. Meals are available if arranged in advance; bring provisions if you're flexible on timing. The building opens seasonally for winter use, particularly December through March. Toilet and washing facilities are basic but functional. The location works well as a base for ski-mountaineering and winter hiking in the eastern Alps foothills.
Book ahead by contacting the manager directly, especially for December–February weekends when winter sports traffic peaks. Single-night stays are possible but groups planning multi-day itineraries should reserve 2–3 weeks prior. Access and facilities depend on snow conditions; confirm conditions before arrival during shoulder seasons.
