The posto tappa hostels, based on the excellent French gîte d’étape system, are located in hamlets or villages and are usually (but not always) more spacious and comfortable than the rifugi. Designed for walkers, guests stay in small dormitories, usually with an adjoining bathroom and hot shower. Some offer clean sheets and towels for a modest fee, and the odd one accepts payment by credit card. Self-caterers will occasionally have access to a kitchen; cooking facilities are listed when available, as are village grocery stores. It is a good idea to buy your supplies the afternoon you arrive rather than waste precious time the following morning waiting for shops to open. On the other hand Sunday openings are common in summer, and freshly baked bread may be available. It is a good idea to carry a supply of tea bags, condensed milk and biscuits.
