Ristorante Cantarana In Chiuro

08/10/2023: The Viola refuge was my first experience of staying overnight in an alpine refuge located at the end of the valley of the same name. I slept in a very nice shared dormitory equipped with all the necessary services, including a shower. The refuge is lovingly managed by the Fraquelli family; simple, welcoming and caring people. Typical dinner based on polenta, stew, typical cheeses, salami, buckwheat cake with blueberry complete with truly regenerating wine after the long 4-hour walk climbing from Sfazu' (Switzerland) through the Val di campo. The only limit is the almost total absence of telephony field...which perhaps isn't even a limit 😀! An experience to repeat, perhaps climbing from Arnoga in Val Viola, just to try an alternative route. Oh I forgot... the Alpine scenery you encounter is enchanting, the lakes and streams are of rare beauty!

02/10/2023: Refuge near the beautiful lakes, easily reachable by bicycle, fast and friendly service, excellent stew.
