Tips from the Community
The trail is suitable for everyone and takes about an hour to reach the refuge. You can either hike along a cobblestone road or through the woods (not recommended if it's snowing in winter because it freezes, and in summer, some sections are very muddy). Be sure to pay extra attention.

A very characteristic refuge at the foot of the Presolana at 1,940 meters. It can be climbed from Teveno or Colere (in approximately 1 hour 45 and 2 hours 30 minutes). Several peaks can be reached from the refuge; the Curò refuge can be reached via the Giro delle Orobie trail.

Starting on an easy, low-elevation hike from the parking lot in front of Bar Neve, follow the trail to the Cassinelli Refuge. This tree-shaded trail is one of my favorites for enjoying the mountains, even with those who are struggling. At the refuge, a warm welcome awaits, and authentic Orobic flavors are guaranteed. A must-try if you're looking for a mountain retreat for everyone.

Passo degli Agnelli is located at 1950 meters above sea level, under the steep walls of the southern slope of Presolana. It is a spectacular panoramic point, easily reachable from Rifugio Rino Olmo. The hike to the pass offers splendid views of the surrounding mountains and can be part of a circular tour that includes Valle dei Mulini, Passo Olone and Rifugio Olmo. The trail crosses scree and woods, offering an immersive experience in the nature of the Bergamo Orobie

convenient and large parking for those who want to go on excursions in the area. Although there is really a lot of space, it is better to arrive early because it fills up quite quickly.

One of the best refuges in Bergamo! Once you arrive the view is spectacular, on one side the queen of the Orobie, the Presolana, and on the other side a beautiful view of the valley. The cuisine is excellent with typical mountain dishes, the staff very kind and welcoming, you feel at home!
