Seven breakfasts are included throughout the walk. Lunches are purchased at mountain rifugi along the way, an authentic part of the alpine experience well worth embracing. Dinners are not included and can be taken at your accommodation or at local restaurants in town. Please advise us of any food allergies or intolerances at the time of booking — if you have severe allergies, bringing some of your own snacks is recommended, as specialist ingredients can be harder to source in the mountains.
