Rifugio Bar Alpino

The Alpine Bar Refuge is located at 1268 meters above sea level in the southernmost part of the Asiago Plateau and is part of the "Tour of the Caltrano mountain huts". Given the large public car park in front of the structure, it is considered the starting and finishing point of this well-known circular route. 

The refuge is located in the middle of a clearingin the middle of fir and beech woods and offers restaurant service and bar/snacks. The Shelter accepts all four-legged friends and to welcome you and them there will be the cute dog Diana

The shortest access road is from Val Magnaboschi di Cesuna, easily accessible from the Costo road. From Val Magnaboschi the refuge is 2.8 km away on a dirt road. In addition, it can be reached from the Ceresana road, accessible from the Campiello locality at the end of the Costo road, from Monte Corno or from the Boscon locality of the municipality of Roana. 

TYPICAL DISHES

EXCURSIONS AND SNOWSHOEING IN COLLABORATION WITH THE BIOSPHAERA COOPERATIVE

The Alpine Bar Refuge, in collaboration with the Biosphaera Cooperative, organizes summer excursions, on foot or by bicycle, and snowshoeing in the snow with dedicated lunch or dinner in the refuge.

Nature and history (Great War) are the themes told by the nature guides of Biosphaera, who also organize, for the little ones, workshops and recreational activities at the refuge.

WINTER

During the winter season, the Alpine Refuge bar is transformed into a fairytale place. 

The snow-covered forest, the warmth that only the wood-burning stove can give and the absolute silence

In winter, all access roads to the refuge are forbidden to vehicles, so you can only get there by walking. The shortest from Cesuna is just under 3 km away, takes about 45 minutes and can be covered by most. 

After the climb, an excellent dish to warm your belly and soul or a hot chocolate with a slice of warm cake awaits you. 

In addition, on snowy nights of the full moon, the Refuge organizes suggestive snowshoeing in collaboration with local guides.

 

SUMMER

In summer, the well-kept garden of the Alpine Refuge bar is the ideal place to lie down to sunbathe or cool off in the shade after an excellent lunch or snack. The terrace offers the opportunity to have lunch in the open air, so as to rediscover the sounds and smells of real nature. 

The windows are always decorated with wonderful flowers that make the environment joyful and festive and every detail, possibly in wood and self-produced such as the benches and tables in the garden or vintage recovered from attics and granaries, is carefully studied by the owner Francesca. 

In addition, the queen of summer at the Alpine Refuge bar is mountain biking. Whether electric or traditional, the Refuge is the meeting point and arrival point of dozens of fantastic routes to be done on two wheels immersed in the enchanted woods of the Plateau. The cyclist's break at the Refuge is sweet, with a coffee and an excellent slice of homemade cake, or savory, with a good cold beer and a platter of typical local products

In summer, the Alpine Refuge Bar is also a destination for mushroom enthusiasts, who can have fun finding precious loot in the surrounding woods. 

KITCHEN, VEGETABLE GARDEN AND WINE 

Wild herbs, cheeses produced by the nearby mountain huts, vegetables from their own garden and products from local farms are the protagonists of the authentic and tasty cuisine of the Refuge.

The 0 km products used by the kitchen of the Alpine Refuge bar fully embrace the thinking of the managers Francesca and Manuel: to find in simplicity and in a few things, but very fresh and made with the heart, the reason to return.

The availability of wild herbs, mushrooms or vegetables from the garden dictates the seasonality of the Refuge's menu, which varies often and with a few dishes is able to satisfy even special needs.

At the Alpine Refuge bar there is a vast cellar of bottled wines produced by small artisanal businesses, with a good choice of natural wines as well. For an aperitif or to accompany your lunches or dinners, the innkeeper and oenologist Manuel will advise and guide you in the knowledge of vines and territories.
