Tips

A famous refuge in the upper Modena Apennines, the Tassoni hut is located between Fanano and the Croce Arcana pass, in the Ospitale valley. It was built in the 1960s on the site of a sheepfold owned by a certain Giovanni Tassoni, whose name was inherited by the current refuge. Open every day from June to September, in the remaining periods it is only open on weekends but an emergency room equipped with beds and blankets is always accessible.

Passo della Croce Arcana, 1 hour from the refuge, was crossed by the Gothic Line, front between Allied and German forces during the Second World War. Remains of military installations are found nearby

Excellent starting point for excursions both on foot and by mountain bike.

Rustic local cuisine, very pleasant, good value for money, located in the forest, quiet in the evening. Nice service from young boys and girls.

Sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen und Radtouren (MTB).

Sehr leckere lokale Küche, gutes PreisLeistungsVerhältnis, abends sehr ruhig. Sympathischer Service von jungen Leuten
