    The Rifugio Gattascosa is located at 2,000 meters in the Italian Val Bognanco, just a few minutes' walk from the Swiss border. Surrounded by meadows and forests, the mountain hut is a popular stopover. The menu features regional specialties such as polenta, and accommodation for up to 20 guests is also available.

    There is a bigger rush here on weekends. If you're looking for peace and quiet in the mountains, you've come to the wrong place.
