Mountain refuge near the Laguna Grande de Peñalara, with spectacular views of the surrounding area. It's worth returning from the lagoon to the reserves, passing through the refuge—the views won't disappoint.

A small refuge that is located at the foot of the summit of Hermano Mayor and that offers a place in case, there is a storm. Otherwise, it is also located in a space with very good views.
