Refúgio Tres Picos
Refúgio Tres Picos ( Tres Picos Refuge ) is one of the three huts on the Tres Picos main trail. Who rises Parque Estadual dos Tres Picos from São Lourenço road, I advise to stay in this hut. There are a
natural pool, a
beautiful waterfall close to the house, a
good lawn and a particular vegetable plantation to increase the hiker/mountaineer diet.
Installations
The hut is simple but very comfortable. There are
two fireplaces for
cold nights; a good kitchen with a
firewood stove; two baths with
hot shower,
20 beds, a
green outside area to camp close to the hut and a
cook to make the best foods for the climbers/mountaineers.
