Located in the middle of the Montserrat region of Agulles, this is one of the two preserved facilities that the Federation has in the Montserrat massif. It is named after the climber Vicenç Barbé, who died in 1942 while climbing the Frares Encantats. Inaugurat el gener de 1961, la iniciativa de construir aquest refugi fou de la Delegació Catalana de la Federació Espanyola de Muntanyisme (l’actual FEEC). Hiking, equipped paths and above all climbing are the star activities that can be done from this refuge. Different tours around the Agulles region (through the Estret gate, through the Porc pass); the return to les Agulles, les Frares and Echos through the Migdia gate; the crossing to the Monastery on the GR 172; the PR-C 78 - which passes through the refuge-; and 900 classic and sport climbing routes that climb to the top of 160 rocks and needles are some of the arguments within reach of the mountaineer.Services at the shelter:
