Refreshment on the Trail Pereto Campo Rotondo

The refuge is managed by the CAI section of Avezzano, it is not always open and you need to call to reserve beds or other activities (cell +39 345 162 6570). It doesn't have a winter room, so if you arrive and it's closed you have to camp outside. The refuge is located in a wonderful area: right at the entrance to the Majelama valley and at the foot of the imposing Cafornia mountain.

Pass at an altitude of 1,100 meters on the provincial road that leads from Celano to Forme. Here there is a fountain with very fresh water, a picnic table and a panoramic point towards the Fucino plain on one side and the Cafornia and Velino mountains on the other.

Camporotondo is a small village in the heart of the Simbruini in the province of L'Aquila. The climb to get there is challenging, but the beauty of the surrounding nature repays every effort.

Refuge open by reservation only, no snacks or bar service... but the lady was very kind in giving me some tart
