The Della Corte refuge is an ancient alpine shelter with a
chapel attached, situated at 1,250 metres above sea level
in Val Gerola.
The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and informal, ideal for
those who love the mountainside and simplicity.
The relatively low altitude and easy access by car are great
advantages for elderly people or people with heart or respiratory
problems.
The refuge is sunny even in the winter period and offers an
extraordinarily wide panorama overlooking all of Val Gerola
and the Rhaetian Alps.
In the surrounding area, in springtime, it is possible to
find roe-bucks, deer, foxes, hare, marmots and higher up ,
chamois, the real kings of the rocks.
For bird-watching enthusiasts there is a great variety
of birds, among which the wood-grouse, the symbol of the Regional
Nature Park 'Parco delle Orobie Valtellinesi' in which the
refuge is located.
Food: in the refuge you can savour typical local dishes
and products such as pizzoccheri, taroz, polenta taragna or
concia, spare ribs, oven-cooked shin of pork, tasty mushroom
flavoured stews
Naturally enough the valtellinese wines, locally produced
cured meats, precious cheeses from our valley like Casera
and Bitto, pies, sweet and savoury for abundant snacks are
not to be missed.
One must not miss the opportunity of tasting the famous "Homo
Selvadego" pizza prepared by Mara's capable hands using
only locally produced ingredients such as low-fat cheese (substituting
the more classical mozzarella), salami, bacon and wild Valley
ceps.
The Welcome: warm welcoming rooms are available, each
with it's own private bath and shower and central heating.
The landlords of "Rifugio della Corte" are "SICK"
for ski touring (Mara) and
Telemark skiing (Corrado).
They invite all the fans, of this wonderful way to go to the
mountain in winter, to visit them for wonderful trips in a
valley that offers more than the others, snow evermore suitable
for skiing on with extraordinary itinerarys.
Corrado invites all the lovers of Telemark, who really love
skiing off the slopes and go up with climbing skins, for unforgettable
trips.
