Capanna 2000 Refuge
Rifugio Capanna 2000 is a high mountain hut at an elevation of 1.972m (6,469ft) above the sea level, located in the Province of Bergamo in the Italian region of Lombardy. The road is very steep, with some parts up to 12%.
Starting from the village of Zambla Alta, the road to the hut is 9.4km long with 14 hairpin turns. The road is totally impassable in winters. There’s a high risk of rock slide, very steep (up to 12% parts) and forbidden to vehicles heavier than 3.5Tn.
The road to the hut is mostly asphalted (7.2km). The paved part ends at a parking lot. The last 2.20 km are on an unpaved rough track closed to private vehicles. It’s very steep. Only 4x4 vehicles.
