Rifugio Brentei

Rifugio Brentei is a mountain hut situated in the Brenta Dolomites at 2,182 meters elevation in Val Brenta. The location offers views toward Madonna di Campiglio and the Adamello-Presanella mountain range.

The hut was built in 1947 by the Italian Alpine Club of Monza. The mountaineer Bruno Detassis and his son then managed the refuge for many consecutive years.

Black and white photographs line the wooden walls, showing climbers and mountain life from past decades. These images tell the story of people who have lived and worked here over the years.

The hut is only accessible on foot via paths from Vallesinella. Visitors should bring proper footwear and be prepared for a demanding walk to reach the location.

A small stone church sits above the hut as a memorial to climbers who died on the surrounding peaks. This quiet place of remembrance offers visitors a moment of reflection.
