Inaugurated in October 1907, the hut of Rifugio Volpi al Mulaz, known also as Rifugio Mulaz (as it was initially named), is a hut owned by CAI (Italian alpine club) located on the head of the basin of Val Focobòn, just below the gap of Passo Mulaz, at 2,571 meters of altitude.
Between 1959 and 1960 the hut was renovated and enlarged, thanks to donations from the Volpi family of Venice. The project was completed in July 1960, meanwhile the hut was being dedicated to Giuseppe Volpi, or Volpi of Misurata (1877-1947), Venetian investor, industrialist and politician, founder of SADE (electricity society of the Adriatic), creator of the industrial pole of Porto Marghera (Venice), as well as governor of Tripolitania from 1921 to 1925 and Count of Misurata.
