The Sella refuge is in the Gran Paradiso Group, at the centre of the most prestigious Italian National Park. The refuge is situated in the Lauson basin, which thanks to its exposure, is covered in snow from November to May and offers downhill skiers some of the most picturesque climbs and crossings of the Gran Paradiso mountain range.
The Refuge is a comfortable double construction in brickwork and consists of one floor. One of the buildings, which has been modernized, was King Victorio Emanuele II's old hunting house.
