    Nestled on the side of a cliff, the refuge of Petra Piana is historic. Built in 1971, it is the first refuge of the GR 20. Located at the foot of Bocca Muzzela, it offers 28 beds in addition to a few pitches for tents.

      The Petra Piana is a very small refuge, perched on the mountainside, which dates back to 1971.
      If you plan to sleep there, you must book your night online, on the PNRC (Corsican Regional Natural Park) website. The refuge is located near a spring where you can fill up with water, if you are just passing through.

        Often windy to stormy matter. Beautiful sunrise and starting point for the ascent of Monte Rotondo
