The Rifugio Città di Lissone is located at 2,020 meters above sea level, in the heart of the Adamè Valley, in the Adamello Regional Park, in the municipality of Saviore dell’Adamello (BS). It is a much-loved destination for hikers, families and mountaineers, thanks to its spectacular location at the foot of the Adamello and the ease of access from Malga Lincino (about 1 hour's walk, 400 m of altitude difference). Originally an ENEL building, it was used as a barracks during the White War and transformed into a refuge by the CAI of Lissone in the 1970s. After a fire in 1986, it was rebuilt and reopened in 1991. Today it offers 70 beds, cuisine with local products (including from nearby Malga Adamè), and a warm welcome from the managers, both ski mountaineering instructors. The refuge is a starting point for: excursions towards Corno di Grevo (also via ferrata), crossings towards Rifugio Baita Adamè, historical explorations along the paths of the Great War.
