The cheese tastes super delicious here 😋 If you ask nicely, you can get a private tour of the cheese dairy. There is a drinking water source. Since it was already late, we were allowed to pitch our tents nearby, sheltered from the wind (see photo of tent in the cave)

Located at an altitude of 1,820 meters, the refuge was destroyed by lightning and then rebuilt in 2000. It has 32 places as well as a large grassy plateau suitable for bivouacking. Fill up with water there because you will not find any source until the next refuge of Usciolu.
