Description
For most inhabitants of Bergell, the name Albigna recalls the large dam wall and reservoir that significantly changed the appearance of this Bergell side valley. Originally, the shelter stood at the site now occupied by the large dam. In 1956, it was rebuilt in a beautiful location on a ridge above the lake. From the dam to the hut, it is a little more than a half-hour walk.
If you want to start on foot from the valley, go shortly above the cable car to the right into the forest. After a short time, you reach a forest road, which you follow to the bridge over the Albigna. From here, the route leads on a footpath over the Motta Ciürela and from there on the ridge above the Albigna up to the dam.
