Ristoro Alto Matanna In Stazzema

Beautiful place, surrounded by nature and animals, excellent lunch

Absolutely worth trying. It takes super trained forks to finish everything they bring you. All of their own production or 0 km from other small local producers. TOP

Guys, with all the good I can wish for you and your animals, but today your sheepdogs attacked me three times (once on the way out on the path towards the mouth of the balloon, once on the way back and once near the car). It wasn't long before one of them bit my calf. I had to scream to make them go away and luckily I scared them more by yelling at them. It is not possible for a hiker or any other person/family who approaches or stays at the refuge to find themselves in a dangerous situation because of your dogs. Either there is a shepherd who keeps an eye on them or we need education not to attack the man if he passes near the flock.

After trekking in the surrounding area, we stopped to eat something and were able to appreciate the environment which is very reminiscent of a farm: there are in fact many animals, even free to roam around the estate. It will be inevitable to encounter dogs, cats, geese, ducks, cows, donkeys, etc., and even a fawn, probably an orphan, was growing up. The cuisine is carried out by young people, with an excellent quality-price ratio: we took a sandwich (still of considerable size, made with "real" bread and not with the one in the box) with ham and pecorino of truly goodness remarkable for 6 euros. The prices for cappuccinos, chocolates and other drinks are also good. We will definitely be back to have a real lunch or dinner: we are sure that everything will be excellent at a fair price. The photos published are also related to the trekking we carried out, starting right from the refuge, reaching the top after about an hour.

Excellent quality genuine food, made by them, from cheese, jam, cold cuts, kind courteous owner, it's like a fairytale farm, you can stay overnight either with a sleeping bag or sheets provided by them, I recommend... we'll return

Whenever I spend time at Matanna I always feel at home. The family that runs it is always kind and hospitable.

Beautiful particular refuge excursion

Italian Alpine Club hut and at the same time 'animal shelter' - beautiful hikes can be started from here, including, if you're lucky, a herd of wild horses. Food and drinks are available in the building at fair prices.

Very welcoming classic mountain environment, excellent simple food, availability of beds, very attentive and kind staff... The refuge can be reached on foot

Una delle cene migliori (e a buon prezzo) della mia vita. In questa struttura producono quasi tutto in autonomia (carne, pasta fresca, verdure ecc.) e si sente e come!! le pappardelle al ragù erano fuori di testa, la bistecca forse anche meglio!! il tutto in un contesto bucolico pieno di animali, con i cavalli e le mucche al pascolo; ho visto un'attenzione verso il rispetto degli animali che mi ha fatto apprezzare questo luogo ancora di più. Trattasi inoltre di un'attività completamente familiare, il "nonno" è uno di quei toscani "di montagna", forse un pò di poche parole all'inizio, ma che quando inizia a parlare lo scolteresti per ore: "la campagna è tutto, la gente di città deve andare in palestra, deve fare la spesa...qui in campagna si fa tutto con il lavoro, e si segue il ritmo della natura", lo adoro:)
