Tips

Hiking

Also great for a winter overnight! There are 3 cots that can be moved in case of sleeping in more. Nothing is missing, lots of wood, hacksaw and hatchets, playing cards and lights, a stove that heats well, grappa, brooms and mops to clean before leaving, and a box to leave generous donations given the welcome.

The Elio Franz Refuge is always open to everyone and is a wonderful shelter. Its beauty and the simple and welcoming atmosphere evoke the sensations of a real fairy tale.

Hiking

Simple itinerary along the forest road, the path instead allows you to reach the bivouac in a short time, it is not difficult but in any case you need sure-footedness.
Along the forest road, pay attention to the crossroads…
