The Birnlückenhütte ( Italian Rifugio Brigata Tridentina or Rifugio Forcella del Picco ) is a refuge in South Tyrol .
location
The Birnlückenhütte is located at 2,441 m above sea level, southwest of the Austrian - Italian border pass Birnlücke (west of the Großvenediger ) on the Italian side in South Tyrol . It is located in the area of the Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park . Since it can only be reached via very steep and narrow paths, it is supplied by helicopters. In summer, the exposed location can occasionally lead to bottlenecks in the water supply.
History
In 1900 the first three-story hut was built by Alois Voppichler, a Prettau innkeeper, and operated until 1927 after an interruption in the First World War . At that time the house was also known as the Bockegghütte . Then the Italian state bought them, which they used for the financial watch. The Tridentina military brigade gave the hut its current name, Rifugio Tridentina . In World War II, part of the hut was destroyed. It was again poorly repaired and operated briefly in 1953, but soon abandoned again. In 1969/1970 the Italian army repaired the hut and for a few years it was again used for military purposes. In 1975 the hut was taken over by the CAI section in Bruneck and officially reopened in 1977. Between 1987 and 1999, major renovation measures aimed at protecting the environment (sewage treatment plant, water treatment) were carried out.
Together with 24 other shelters expropriated by the state, the Birnlückenhütte became the property of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano - South Tyrol in 1999; At the end of 2010, the license for their management by the CAI expired. Since 2015, the state of South Tyrol has been supported in the management of the hut (assignment to tenants, supervision of management, renovation measures) by a joint commission, in which the AVS and CAI are represented in addition to the public sector .
