The refuge is also open in the winter. Please note that reservations are required for lunch, and dogs are not allowed inside. The food is excellent.

In the diary of his pilgrimage on the Way of St. James, which was published later, the German entertainer Hape (Hans-Peter) Kerkeling also writes about the meditative experience of praying the Rosary together, which he experienced himself in the “grandiose village church, which has the makings of a cathedral” of Castildelgado (Castile). Under the date June 21, 2001, he notes: “I simply must see the only tourist attraction in town! (…) She is all the more pleased that I want to see the jewel of Castildelgado and accompanies me inside. Our tour quickly ends in front of the altar, and so the woman asks me to take a seat in one of the wonderfully cool pews. Gradually, other people enter the church. The older lady begins to pray the rosary. The monotonous chanting has a calming effect, and the constantly repeating lament gives strength, security, and peace! So, after I can recite the words along with her, I join in the mantra…” (Hape Kerkeling in “I’m Off Then: My Journey on the Camino de Santiago”)

Although the flag parade seen in some of the photos (which various users have uploaded to the highlight) could theoretically fit into a memorial for the victims of the two world wars – who came from many different nationalities – they do not belong in any context with the “Monumento ai caduti”.

It's the first thing you notice, even from afar, when you arrive at Monginevro

A beautiful stretch that allows you to reach the Argentera Valley more easily, or with more effort Cima del Bosco

Church dedicated to the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is located in the center of Claviere, slightly off the provincial road. In front is a pedestrian plaza with several benches; to the side is a park with a beautiful fountain (drinking water). All around are bars and restaurants. In the background, the stunning mountains of the Susa Valley. The portal is remarkable, with a beautiful fresco depicting the Nativity.

It is located at the top of the Chiesa hamlet, just inside the town. The roads leading to it are mostly pedestrianized, but accessible by bicycle. The church has a rather intricate façade, with a beautiful portal; the rectory, which overlooks the churchyard at a 90° angle to the church, is also very beautiful. Next to the church is a fountain nestled among the trees. The stone bell tower is also noteworthy. In front, a stunning view of the Susa Valley awaits. To reach the churchyard, you have to do a bit of portage, but it's worth it.

In the hamlet of Vernin, on the road from the provincial road to Fenils, a beautiful mountain church with an exposed stone bell tower and the rest of the structure plastered, nestled in the setting of a lovely, well-restored mountain hamlet. Next door is the small, equally picturesque village cemetery. There's a drinking fountain and benches. All around, a wonderful view of the surrounding mountains. Even from afar (especially from the provincial road), it's striking, fitting perfectly into its surroundings.
