Any ideas for the best way to translate the term "Punti d'appoggio" as a title in the description of a trekking, followed by a list of hotels, restaurants, grocer's shops, places where you can get water etc. Thanks, Sarah.

Comment: "So difficult to decide, but in the end I've opted for "facilities" as it "sounds" better in the context of the other text. Many thanks to you all... "

Directory/Facts for visitors
I've looked through a few of my travel guides and these are some of the titles used. Time Out uses 'Consume' for this section of one of its books. I think it depends how it fits in with the other sections of the book as well.

Just realised you may not have been talking about a book, but rather a description of an excursion, but I think the answer is still relevant

If the tone of the text is informal, this could be an option.

Essential trekking tips (and information)
basically the main information required so "information" could be substituted for "tips"
could also use:
"Facts at your fingertips"
