In the midst of the dense, pristine forests of the Val Concei, the Rifugio al Faggio is named after a large beech tree (faggio is Italian for beech) that stands behind the refuge, estimated to be over 250 years old. Built in 1955, the refuge has been updated over the years and is now frequented by lovers of good food a
nd relaxation (there’s even a swimming pool). Mountain devotees still find plenty to get their teeth into on the Alpi di Ledro, whose slopes and peaks were of great strategic importance during the Great War.
