It is the northernmost refuge in the Veronese Lessinia, at 1,750 meters above sea level. It is also the highest, on par with the Primaneve refuge on Mount Tomba. Its open position offers sweeping views in all directions. It has been beautifully renovated, both inside and out. 300 meters to the north, the observatory is definitely worth seeing, with its indication of the visible mountains and trenches from the First World War.

Unfortunately, you can also get there by car. We're in the Lessinia Natural Park.

The Malga Lessinia building was built in 1915 to provide accommodation for the financial police troops operating along the Austro-Hungarian border of the Great War, a few hundred meters away. The First World War left numerous signs that are still visible in upper Lessinia. The most obvious are the dozens of kilometers of roads that today climb up to the high pastures, built in the first months of the conflict to facilitate the deployment of the armed forces under the command of General Cantore on the Lessinia front. Another extraordinary sign is the defensive redoubt of Malga Pidocchio, military trenches built between the karst tunnels, brought to light in 2014, thanks to the extraordinary commitment of Flavio Melotti, and can be visited a few steps from here. In 1945 the military building was converted into a mountain hut for mountain grazing and in the early 2000s we began operating as an alpine refuge. In the summer months we welcome thousands of hikers and tourists who come up to Lessinia to admire its views, to take quiet walks and to enjoy the fresh mountain air.
