The Gianetti Refuge can only be reached on foot from the Masino baths or from the Omio, Brasca or Allievi refuges located on the Roma Path. The Gianetti Refuge has 78 beds and offers a restaurant service with tables both inside and outside. It has hot water and sells sleeping bags when needed. I recommend that you book before arriving.
