The Sardona Hut is a very nice, simple place to stay for anyone who enjoys hiking in the mountains.
The Sardona Hut doesn't have a shower, but it does have separate washrooms with cold water. Outside, there's a barefoot trail with a small swimming spot. There are plenty of flowers and wildlife to see. Dinner is served at 6:30 p.m., and breakfast starts as early as 5:00 a.m., depending on the tour. By 8:00 a.m. at the latest, everyone is either having breakfast or already on their way.
