Overview

Rifugio Bosio-Galli (often shortened to Rifugio Bosio, also known as Rifugio Carlo Bosio or Bosiohütte) is an alpine mountain hut in the Italian region of Lombardy, in the Bernina Alps. It sits at an elevation of 2,086 metres above sea level within the municipality of Torre di Santa Maria and belongs to the Desio section of the Club Alpino Italiano (CAI). The hut is normally staffed and operated from the beginning of June to the end of September, offering 45 sleeping places for mountaineers, plus a winter room with six beds for use outside the managed season. The hut is a stop on the Sentiero Roma, an alpine high route. The nearest neighbouring huts on this route include the Pontihütte (2,559 m above sea level), reachable in about three hours, while the descent to the valley settlement of Torre di Santa Maria (795 m above sea level) also takes roughly three hours. As a CAI-owned refuge, it functions as a commercial hospitality and mountaineering service brand within the Italian alpine hut network, providing accommodation, food service during the summer season, and shelter infrastructure for hikers and climbers. Its identity is tied to the Club Alpino Italiano, Italy's principal mountaineering association, and specifically to its Desio section, which owns and manages the property. The hut's official web presence is hosted on a Google Sites page. Detailed operational information is also catalogued in alpine hut directories and in Wikidata.
