    Small refuge managed by volunteers from the Stella Cometa Group. It is always open and with a sheltered space with tables, a stove and a large fireplace. It is located on the saddle between Monte Singio and Monte Cengio.

      Every Christmas since 1986, the largest bright comet in Italy, and perhaps Europe, has hovered between Mount Cengio and nearby Mount Singìo: 360 meters long, a star with eight 32-meter rays, 166 LED lights... it's visible up to 30 km away! During those days, the Stella Cometa Group's hut serves as a base camp and shelter for volunteers, as well as a reception area for visitors.

      But the small refuge in the woods is open year-round, available to hikers. It has a curious appearance: from the outside, it resembles a shack assembled from recycled materials; inside, it is cozy, spacious, and equipped with large tables, a fireplace, and a kitchenette. A rudimentary yet ingenious pulley system makes the door self-closing, protecting it from the elements!
