A classic alpine refuge, accessible by ski in winter and on foot or by bike in summer. No matter how you choose to get here, you'll find great coffee and cake to help you prepare for the rest of your hike, or to relax after a grueling descent. It's always worth a detour, especially with such magnificent views!
