    Hiking

    The Deffeyes refuge, base for the ascent to Rutor, stands in an enchanting position on the edge of a large valley that separates it from the end of the glacier (a valley occupied in part by the Lower Lake of Rutor). From the refuge you can enjoy a wide view of the glacier, characterized by Le Vedettes which rise right in its center. On the right there is the small church of S. Margherita, built between 1606 and 1607 to protect the valley from the terrible floods caused by ephemeral lakes formed by ice.

    Magnificent refuge of the Italian Alpine Club, from where many races start in the direction of Ruitor. The welcome is warm and the atmosphere very pleasant.
