Mottarone in the background

In the early 19th century, Alpe Cavallaccio was a vast expanse of pastures and woods. In 1880, the larger hut was built as a stable, while the smaller hut served as a shelter for shepherds and a tool shed. After World War II, they were abandoned and then purchased by a private individual who used them as a support structure for the Baveno pink granite quarry. In the 1960s, a group of fishermen from Baveno created a small lake for recreational fishing. In 1968, the lake was abandoned and turned into a pond. Many children of yesteryear remember it as "the Frog Pond." In the 1980s, the hut was left in use as a tool shed for the quarry. Renovation and reactivation work began in 2009, inspired by ethical and conservationist construction.

Mandatory passage Descending from Mount Crocino towards Mount Zughero

Very steep section with little clearing. You must keep your feet on the ground for 1 km.

Not a bad place to take a break. However, it's a ruin.

Beautiful

Hidden among the slopes of Mottarone, at 1,204 meters, the Rifugio Alpe Nuovo offers a welcoming space with 12 beds. The structure, the result of the passion of members and volunteers, is also equipped with a kitchen and dining room. The bar service is limited, but you can consume your own food.

Super beautiful and idyllic place for a rest. The place is something special and you have a great view in different directions. There is catering at the hut.
