ALPE POZZA "VINCENZO LANCIA"
Information
At the foot of Col Santo, in the heart of the Pasubio, the Rifugio Alpe Pozza “Vincenzo Lancia” is an ideal spot to stop and discover ancient vestiges of shepherds or the history of the Great War, which wrote some of its cruellest chapters in these mountains. The refuge was built in 1939 by the Rovereto branch of SAT (Association of Trentino Mountaineers) on the ruins of a former Austro-Hungarian military building and is named after motoring pioneer Vincenzo Lancia. It’s easy to get to, and once there you’re rewarded with extensive views and peaceful pastures, with a picturesque church. In winter, the refuge is popular with ski mountaineers and snowshoers.
