Hiking

The Cesare Benigni refuge is located at the beginning of a small plateau that starts from Lake Piazzotti and extends between Val Salmurano and Val Tronella. Between rocks and pools of water, you can enjoy a wonderful view of all the Orobie.

Hiking

Excellent, well-equipped refuge for both a day's stay and an overnight stay. Ample outdoor space with tables for dining. The 360° view is spectacular, both over the Bergamo Orobie and the Valtellina Alps.
Starting from the road leading to Piani dell'Avaro, there are two possible trails: the traditional 108, which, however, involves a very steep gully (not recommended for dogs), or the 108A, the longer (but also much more scenic) variant, which does not involve any steep sections.

Hiking

To reach the refuge for those coming from the Scioc locality (Cusio) there is the possibility of avoiding the gully and taking the Via dei Vitelli. Very beautiful.
