Sant'Antonio is a small alpine village in the Vogna Valley characterized by the typical Walser architecture. Here is the Valle Vogna Refuge, an excellent starting point for numerous excursions, as well as a stopping point for the GTA. If you want to fully experience the atmosphere and savor the delicacies of the Walser valleys, this is the right place for you.

The road ends here, you will find the refuge at the entrance to the paths that lead to the side of the valley. A beautiful area and uphill on a narrow but little traffic road.
