The Corte Nuovo mountain pasture (1,635 m) located in the Centovalli, once an important place of rural life for local communities, is at the center of a worthy project by the Patriziato di Borgnone which aims to save it from the constant decline of recent decades and to make it a point of reference for the tourist offer thanks to a specific redevelopment plan.

The shelter
This small refuge was inaugurated on 29 July 2017 and is open to everyone.
It is an intimate place, set up in a simple and spartan way. Here you can appreciate and savor all the essences of a true mountain experience.
The building includes a small kitchen / living room of about 30 square meters, above which there is a mezzanine with 6 beds in common.
A young testimonial presents Corte Nuovo
"I had the opportunity to visit Corte Nuovo on a splendid winter day in which I was invited to participate in the annual snowshoe hike on Pizzo Ruscada with a group of friends. The climb was definitely worth it! the spectacular view from the top of Pizzo Ruscada passes from the welcoming refuge of Corte Nuovo. I was fascinated by the magic of this small house from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view. then stay in the refuge, thus passing a pleasant and unforgettable evening with friends "
