The absence of refreshment points along the route requires adequate preparation: make sure you have enough water and snacks with you to tackle the entire hike. Near the Rifugio Pernici (1600 m), you can explore the trenches and testimonies of the First World War, which testify to the strategic importance of this area.
The Rifugio Pernici, once an officers’ mess during the conflict, will welcome you with its warm hospitality and the opportunity to enjoy a delicious potato polenta, ideal for recovering energy after the walk.
