This is Grongios Matre. I didn't even know the place existed, it is more cosy B&B than rifugio, but it is absolutely lovely. Cosy and welcoming and Leila and her husband are extremely nice. And the Dolcetto is fantastic. The descent, a very long one, wasn't very comfortable but ok. I went down 1600m today and climbed only 650m. I walked five and a half hours (without the time waiting for Alberto) and my highest point was Passo Gallarino at 2764m.
