take the SS 28, in the direction of Cantarana; from there (on the left for those coming from Ormea, on the right for those coming from Nava), take the SP216, in the  direction of Prale/Caprauna. After passing the Colle di Caprauna, about 1 km later, there is a sign for the Rifugio on the left. The dirt road is accessible to cars and leads to Pian dell’Arma after about 400 meters.

Located on the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri, the Rifugio Pian dell’Arma is a welcome point for those who are about to walk the ninth or eighth stage of the route depending on the direction, between the Prale Pass and the Colle di San Bartolomeo di Ormea (near Monte Armetta). It is easily accessible thanks to the route’s visible signage throughout the entire Ligurian mountain range: red-white-red marks with the word AV written in the white part.
