• RESEARCH SHELTER: allows you to search for shelters by including (or excluding) different parameters (for example type of shelter, geographic area, altitude, difficulty, etc.) Using this method you can (for example) search for all bivouacs situated in Valtellina at an altitude of 2000 meters with heating.
• RESEARCH IN SPECIFIC TERMS: - allows you to search for one of more specific terms with the possibility of including (or excluding) different parameters, for example geographic area, type of shelter, etc. Use this method if , for example you want to search for the words “Sentiero Roma” and you want to narrow down the research to all of the bivouacs situated in Valtellina.
• RESEARCH VIA GEOGRAPHIC MAP: - allows you to search from a general geographic map and click on areas of interest, narrowing down the search more and more until arriving at a map of the specific valley and finally at the page of the shelter desired. Use this method if, for example, you want to search for a shelter in a specific geographic area and you don’t know its name.
• LIST OF SHELTERS: - allows you to list the shelters present in the database and reorganize them according to parameters such as type of shelter, geographic area, etc. Use this method if, for example, you want to list all shelters present in Italy. (You can then organize them according to type of shelter, geographic area, etc.)

We’ve tried to make searching these pages as easy as possible, because we believe that a service (which is the goal of Rifugi-Bivacchi) ought to be readily available to everyone.
