What can you do at Granero?
Here in the mountains, every step is a story.
Every challenge, a discovery!
The beauty of Granero is that you don't necessarily have to aim for the summit to feel like an explorer.
Whether you're looking for a vertical challenge or a slow and curious stroll, here you'll find space for your pace, your rhythm, your idea of adventure.
And we're happy to give you some advice on how to make the most of it.
MTB & E-Bike
Good energy to go far
If you love cycling and you are not afraid of climbs, here you are in the right place. We have an e-bike charging point, so you can set off with a full battery (both you and the bike!). With the E-Bike (or with a traditional MTB if you have legs and grit) you can reach us by following the Sentiero dei Larici that from the hamlet of Partia d'Amount in the Prà basin leads to us. The path is marked with a "MTB Route" sign, very easy and fun. Finally, you can continue by MTB to Lago Nero, under Colle Manzol at 2500-2600m before returning. If you want some tips on the routes or the conditions of the routes, just ask: we know every curve and every difference in altitude! .
Climbing & Bouldering
Hands on the rocks, head in the clouds
For those looking for vertical climbing, here you can have fun (and sweat!). Equipped cliff: about thirty single pitches from 5A to 7B+, with breathtaking views and quality granite. Mountaineering routes on the surrounding peaks, for those who want to test themselves on longer and more challenging routes. Bouldering area to train, experiment, have fun just a few steps from the refuge. If you need info on the routes, the difficulties or the conditions, just ask us. We are always happy to share experience (and maybe some practical advice).
Canoeing & Fishing
Silence, patience and wonder
Around the refuge, and especially at Lago Lungo, sport fishing is permitted. An activity that requires calm, time and the kind of patience that you quickly learn up here. Fishing is permitted from dawn on the first Sunday in June to dusk on the first Sunday in October (unless the bodies of water are still covered in ice). We recommend that you always find out about local rules and permits required before starting. And if you want to know where the smartest fish are hiding... well, we don't promise anything, but we can give you some advice!

Canoeing & Fishing
Still waters, wild moments
A peaceful way to experience the mountain, surrounded by silence, crystal-clear waters, and breathtaking landscapes. Fishing requires calm, time, and the kind of patience that the mountains teach you naturally. Canoeing offers a different perspective: a chance to glide across the water, explore the lake’s quiet corners, and enjoy the beauty of this high-altitude environment. Fishing is permitted from sunrise on the first Sunday of June until sunset on the first Sunday of October (unless the lakes are still covered by ice). Before starting your activity, we recommend always checking the local regulations and making sure you have the required permits. And if you are wondering where the smartest fish are hiding… well, we can’t promise to reveal all their secrets, but we might share a few tips!

MTB & E-Bike
Good energy to go further
If you love riding your bike and climbs don’t scare you, you’re in the right place. We have an e-bike charging station at the refuge, so you can set off again with a full battery… both yours and your bike’s! Whether you ride an e-bike (or a traditional MTB if you have strong legs and a bit of grit), you can reach us by following the Larch Trail, starting from the hamlet of Partia d’Amount in the Prà valley and leading all the way up to our refuge. A well-marked route, signposted as “MTB Trail”, enjoyable and accessible, offering a fun ride through the mountain landscape. And for those who still have energy left, the adventure can continue by MTB towards Lago Nero, beneath Col Manzol, at around 2500–2600 metres of altitude, before heading back down. Looking for advice on routes or trail conditions? Just ask us: we know every corner, every climb, and every change in elevation!
