The Malga Lessinia is a historic mountain hut in the Lessinia Natural Park (Veneto region) at an altitude of 1,616 meters. The building is located near Erbezzo in the province of Verona and today serves as a popular refuge and gastronomic establishment for hikers and mountain bikers. The stone building was erected in 1915 during the First World War as a barracks for Italian border soldiers (Finanzieri). The border with the Austro-Hungarian Empire ran only a few hundred meters away at that time. From 1945 onwards, the complex was used as a mountain pasture for livestock grazing and cheese production. Since the 2000s, the hut has combined traditional dairy farming with a traditional snack bar and restaurant.

Alpine hut in a beautiful location. Too bad you can no longer buy fresh cheeses. The alpine hut gnocchi are excellent.

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.

The refuge is located in the Lessinia Regional Natural Park and is well suited as an intermediate stop and refreshment point for the many excursions that can be done in the surrounding area. In summer it can be reached by car, motorbike or on foot, while in winter with cross-country skis and snowshoes thanks to the groomed trails.
