Advice to our visitors

Being in the mountains, it is always good to be prepared for everything: from sunshine to wind, rain and snow. Temperatures and weather conditions can change within a very short time. Depending on what you do, the right footwear is critical. Do not forget sunscreen and sunglasses. In summer, mosquito repellent is very helpful.
