The Scarfiotti Refuge, located on the Grange du Fond plateau with several lakes and beautiful waterfalls, is surrounded by some of the highest mountains in Bardonecchia.

The "Camillo Scarfiotti" Refuge (CAI Torino) is located on the magnificent and picturesque plateau of the Grange du Fond, surrounded by enchanting small lakes and striking waterfalls. Easily reached in about 40 minutes of from Bardonecchia by following the signs to Rochemolles and then to Colle del Sommeiller, it is the ideal place for mountain lovers: mountaineers, hikers, lovers of alpine flora and fauna and mountain bikers, as well as motorcyclists and off-roaders.

The Refuge's commitment is to offer simple but good dishes, traditional recipes from the Susa Valley and surrounding alpine areas, as well as the great classics of Piedmontese and Italian tradition, in the hope of convincing that good food, when done with passion and interest, is worth more than much else.

The comfortable dormitory offers 24 beds on the second floor of the hut. The facility is equipped with toilets, hot showers, a large dining room and a magnificent terrace.

Directions

By off-road vehicle:

- from Bardonecchia take the provincial road 235 that enters the Rochemolles Valley and follow it for 6 km until you reach Rochemolles. Up to here the road is a bit narrow but all paved, after that it becomes unpaved. Continuing, the road climbs in hairpin bends until, after about 5 km, it reaches the Rochemolles Dam; skirt the Dam and proceed for another 4 km until you reach the Scarfiotti Refuge, located in the middle of the Grange du Fond plateau.

On foot:

- In summer from the train station take the free Line 6 shuttle to Rochemolles. For shuttle schedules click here.

Continue on foot first along the dirt road following the hairpin bends and then taking the path that leads to the Rochemolles Dam; skirt the dam and continue along the path that occasionally cuts through the hairpin bends until you reach the Scarfiotti Refuge.

Parking

It is possible to park in the vicinity of the Scarfiotti Refuge.
