The convenient access routes make the City of Rijeka Refuge a particularly popular destination for alpine and tourist hikers in both summer and winter. The many shelters lost in the land of Istria and the fondest memories of so many mountaineers forced into an unjust and cruel diaspora are revived here. A stopover point along the Alta Via delle Dolomiti no. 1. In winter, periodically open on weekends (contact the refuge directly).
