The Guide Frachey refuge is in Resy, close to the foot of Palon di Resy, at the start of the Bettaforca valley.
It is in a picturesque location, which makes it possible to enjoy the breathtaking view of practically the entire Val d'Ayas.
Immersed in the greenery of the Forcaz alpine pastures, the refuge is an ideal location for those looking for a relaxing holiday in an extraordinarily beautiful, natural environment.
The Guide Frachey Refuge is open in the summer season with a jeep service.
The Refuge is an ideal starting point for trips around Monte Rosa, as well as being one of the stopping points on Alta Via n°1 and n°3 and the Grande Sentiero Walser.
It is also an ideal starting point for many itineraries on mountain bike.
