Please note that our kitchen is self-managed. While we take care in preparing food, we cannot guarantee the complete absence of cross-contamination, including traces of allergens.

If you have any food allergies or intolerances, such as celiac disease, nuts or other specific allergens, please let us know. All meals may contain traces of common allergens, even if they are not listed in the recipe.

As the location is quite remote, we are unable to provide Halal or Kosher food. Therefore, we kindly ask for your cooperation in following a vegetarian or vegan diet during your stay.

Participants with severe allergies are strongly advised to bring their own safe food and, if needed, an EpiPen or other emergency medication, provided they are independent in its use.

Please keep in mind that we will have 2 dogs on the premises - they are calm and not at all dangerous, but please let us know if it might be a problem.

It's a cosy hostel in a picturesque place 1000m up in the Apennine mountains. It's located near a village called Ligonchio, around 2h drive from Reggio Emilia - very remote, therefore very peaceful.

There will be a market in the hostel with snacks, beer and wine operated only by cash and there is also a bar close to the hostel open during the day, where they sell local products like cheese, pasta and sauces, salami etc., but also there cards sometimes do not work.

The beauty comes with a price: internet is very limited and phone signal might not always work.
