    Attention, le rifugio Melezè est à 1H15 du village Chiesa à Pian Melezè. Ce qui rallonge d'autant l'étape du lendemain. Nous sommes restés au posto tapa del Pelvo qui est au centre du village. Nous avons vu comment ils confectionnent les "raviole" que nous avons dégusté le soir... Prévoir de l'argent liquide car ils ne prennent pas la carte bancaire.

    Attention, the Melezè rifugio is at 1H15 from Chiesa village to Pian Melezè. Which lengthens the stage of the next day. We stayed at the posto tapa del Pelvo which is in the center of the village. We saw how they make the "raviole" that we tasted at night ... Provide cash because they do not take the bank card.
