The Rifugio Oratorio di Cunéy, perched at 2,652 meters in the heart of the Saint-Barthélemy valley, stands next to the sanctuary of the Madonna delle Nevi, one of the highest in Europe. Built on the ruins of a chapel dating back to 1656, it now welcomes hikers with simple warmth, wooden rooms, and home-cooked food, becoming a refuge and place of pilgrimage. The path to reach it from Lignan or Porliod winds through larch forests, pastures, and alpine lakes, up to the panoramic Col du Salvé, a prelude to the Cunéy basin, where the surrounding peaks protect this wild and sacred corner. In a single dive, sacredness merges with the mountain warmth: here the silence is profound, interrupted only by the wind and prayers, and every night captures the essence of haute montagne and alpine simplicity. At the back, a winter shelter (open all year round) is available to hikers who, having reached this place, wish to stop for the night, although the refuge and chapel are closed during the winter and low season.

Rifugio Jean Barmasse, at 2,169 meters above sea level in Valtournenche, is a welcoming refuge that welcomes hikers looking for tranquility and breathtaking views. Immersed in a unique natural setting, it offers a rustic and warm atmosphere, perfect for recharging your batteries after a day on trails and Alpine lakes. Its strategic position makes it an ideal starting point for exploring the wonders of Alta Via 1 and the surrounding mountains.

Perfect for a regenerating break along the Alta Via 1, it offers spectacular views of Monte Rosa and an atmosphere that remains in the heart.
