Rifugio Invernale in Alpi Orobie

[marmak]

Hello to all
I've recently discovered Alpi Orobie - a trip from Poland to Bergamo at the end of October - Ardesio, Valcanale, Rifugio Alpe Corte, beautiful Laghi Gemelli, Pizzo de Becco and finally Corno Medale near Lecco.
As it was a wild camping trip, I have a question for you:
- only in Rifugio Gemelli we found a winter room (Rifugio Invernale).
Are there and in which refugi in the Alpi Orobie are winter rooms available?
Grazzie

Ciao a tutti
Ho scoperto di recente le Alpi Orobie - un viaggio dalla Polonia a Bergamo a fine ottobre - Ardesio, Valcanale, Rifugio Alpe Corte, i bellissimi Laghi Gemelli, Pizzo de Becco e infine Corno Medale vicino a Lecco.
Dato che è stato un campeggio selvaggio, ho una domanda per te:
- solo al Rifugio Gemelli abbiamo trovato una stanza invernale (Rifugio Invernale).
Ci sono e in quali rifugi delle Alpi Orobie sono disponibili Rifugio invernali?

Grazzie

Dear Marmak, your question is better answered by our friend Andrea.brembilla, who is an executive of Club Alpino Italiano,
Sezione Alta Valle Brembana. He certainly knows everything about present status of available winter rooms in our Alpine huts.

Andrea, where are you? Please answer, we'd like to know...

Caro Marmak, la persona migliore per rispondere alla tua domanda è il nostro amico Andrea.brembilla, che è un dirigente
della Sezione Alta Valle Brembana del Club Alpino Italiano. Sicuramente Andrea è al corrente della situazione attuale di agibilità
dei locali invernali presso i nostri rifugi alpini.

Andrea, dove sei? Cortesemente puoi rispondere a Marmak?

B.t.w. Welcome to our Forum to Marmak! It's a pleasure to have you here and share a passion for Alpi Orobie! And the Valley of Brembo...

Dear Marmak, as Andrea is telling you, in this pandemic situation all winter rooms are closed due to the covid emergency rules.

In the future, hoping that the pandemic situation is getting soon to an end, almost all mountain huts in the Orobian Alps are
equipped with a winter room (locale invernale). For a better and complete description you can look at the C.A.I. web sites:

http://www.caialtavallebrembana.it/list ... rifugi/533

http://geoportale.caibergamo.it/rifugi-e-bivacchi

I'm not sure that you can browse these web sites in english, but if you need we can help you,

A further relevant information: if you get to any CAI mountain hut during the opening season (you can find the complete list of
opening season dates for any hut in the web-sites that I linked for you previously) at any time during the day, and you need to
rest, they will find a place to rest for you under any circumstances of wheather, time, vacancy status, etc etc. No hut will let
you outside... This is the general rule, that has been restricted during the covid era due to restrictions imposed by the government.
