Lying  about five kilometres from the centre of Cortina d'Ampezzo, in the lovely pastures of  Pezié de Parù, the refuge is like a crown, surrounded by mountains famous  throughout  the world: the Tofana, Cinque Torri, Antelao, Sorapis and Cristallo.

Being at the centre of an intricate network of paths which lead to refuges, high altitude lakes, museums of the First World War, practice walls and the Parco Naturale delle Dolomiti d'Ampezzo, (Nature Park of the Ampezzo Dolomites), it is a convenient  arrival and setting-off point for  hiking, climbing and mountain bike enthusiasts.

In winter  alpine ski runs merge with trails for hiking on  snow shoes. Its best features  are the ample terrace, a lovely well-groomed lawn where you can  sunbathe on loungers, the pasture with the cows and, lastly, a little brook where children can play safely in fairy-tale surroundings.

Towards evening the place undergoes a change…When dusk falls and the  surrounding peaks begin to  redden,  peace takes hold of the place and only the ringing of the cow bells breaks the eerie silence.

This is what the  Peziè de Parù Refuge offers: contact with  nature, silence and tranquillity.
