Rifugio Cima d’Asta, Mountain hut in Pieve Tesino, Italy.
Rifugio Cima d'Asta is a mountain hut situated at 2473 meters elevation, offering lodging for 56 guests with dining facilities. The restaurant provides views across the Lagorai mountain range and the surrounding alpine landscape.
The hut was built in 1908 by the Italian Alpine Club as the first refuge in the Lagorai mountain range. Its establishment marked the beginning of organized mountain access in this region.
The refuge has become a meeting point for hikers, where conversations about trails and mountain experiences are shared over meals. Staff members pass on knowledge about the surrounding peaks and valleys to visitors planning their routes.
The hut is reachable only by hiking from the Malga Sorgazza parking lot along path 327, which takes about three hours. Access is open seasonally, so visitors should check availability before planning their trip.
One of Europe's deepest mountain lakes lies just below the hut, nestled within dramatic rocky terrain at this elevation. Steel cables secure the steep path leading to the Lagorai's highest summit, creating a memorable climbing experience.
