The Malga Stain refuge is run by kind and competent people. You eat very well and you can stay in small stone and wood houses. The natural terrace on which the refuge stands is beautiful and from here there is a wonderful view of the valley and the surrounding mountains.

The climb from Ono San Pietro is really steep, it is ideal to tackle it with an EMTB. Going up instead from Val di Scalve, the climb is more manageable. Place that deserves to be visited.
