The Fauniera Refuge is located a short distance from the hill of the same name. This place is perfect for enjoying a plate of gnocchi al castelmagno with a beautiful view of the valley.

The climb of the Fauniera is no joke, but pedaling in these places forgets the fatigue.

A paradise of the stars at 2,300 meters above sea level, local raw materials, breathtaking views, hospitality and homely welcome. The refuge is located on the roof of the Grana valley on the crossroads of the Stura and Maira valleys, a magical place with a panoramic view over the plain as far as the eye can see up to the Langhe and the Ligurian Prealps, the use of raw materials of the territory season a unique hospitality of its kind.
