Bivacco Bonfante, Mountain bivouac hut in Prazzo, Italy.
Located at 2630 meters altitude in the Maira Valley, Bivacco Bonfante stands at the foot of Mount Chersogno and Rocca la Marchisa mountains.
The shelter was inaugurated on July 13, 2006, named after Elio Bonfante, a mountaineer who lost his life on the Dente del Gigante in 1992.
The CAI Bra section manages this mountain refuge, which serves as a gathering point for mountaineers exploring the peaks of Maira Valley.
The wooden structure contains 12 sleeping spots, photovoltaic panels for electricity, and access to water from Fonte Nera spring located 10 minutes away.
Near the bivouac, climbers find a dedicated climbing area with 13 single-pitch routes ranging from difficulty levels 4a to 6b+.
