This house, located at 2,800 meters above sea level, is considered the loneliest in the world and fascinates with its interior
Nestled in the Italian Dolomites, Buffa di Perrero sits at 2,800 meters above sea level and is often referred to as “the loneliest house in the world”.
Although this isolated structure has been abandoned for a century, it still captures the imagination.
The origins of the Buffa di Perrero are mysterious. It is widely believed that during World War I, workers were sent to this remote location to build some sort of shelter.
Legend has it that Italian soldiers built this hidden refuge to escape harsh weather conditions and seek shelter during battles with the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Constructed of brick walls and a sloping roof, the building features four windows and camping chairs, stimulating curiosity about how the materials were transported to such a remote location. Steel ladders and ropes were used to negotiate the treacherous terrain and access the structure.
During World War I, similar “bivouacs” were constructed along the Italian front as temporary rest areas and strategic observation points amid the intense mountain warfare.
Since then, the weather damage has taken its toll. The hut reportedly became “unusable” for climbers after the roof collapsed. Nevertheless, adventurers can take a look into this mysterious house via steel ladders, rungs and ropes.
The interior, with its wooden decor, evokes the attempts of both soldiers and modern explorers to relax in this remote refuge.
Inspired by the Buffa di Perrero, the Auronzo Club Alpino Italiano (CAI) built a modern refuge near the Forcella Marmarole pass.
For those seeking an adventurous trip, a challenging five-hour hike leads to this modern hideaway reminiscent of the Buffa di Perrero. Like many iconic landmarks, the Buffa di Perrero has given rise to numerous imitations.
