Information
Description
The Val Corno, which stretches from the Capanna Corno Gries (2,338 m) to the Passo del Corno, is highly interesting in terms of landscape and geology. Garnet inclusions in the slate on the Gries Pass, picturesque Griessee lake on the edge of the glacier world. Between the Nufenen Pass and Val Formazza, little is reminiscent of Ticino as it is commonly imagined. Nevertheless, or perhaps precisely because of this, the area around the Corno Gries hut is a spectacular spot in the southern canton. It is particularly suitable for hikes, children's vacations, ski and summit tours and as a staging post for long-distance hikes.
During the day, the Alpine spaceship offers hot and cold dishes. Alpine cheese, salametti, cold cuts and cheese platters, soup of the day, polenta with various side dishes and homemade gnocchi and cakes. We prepare all our dishes and cakes from scratch in the hut. We also bake the bread ourselves. Whenever possible, we buy fresh and/or organic products from the region.
