Legendary Rifugi of the Dolomites
Legendary Rifugi of the Dolomites
Embedded Files
All the rifugi along these tours have a long history. The hosts are friendly and welcoming, most of them perfectly bilingual (German and Italian), with a strong tradition of hospitality. The younger generation tends to be fluent in English too.
The Schlernhaus - Rifugio Bolzano
The Schlernhaus - Rifugio Bolzano
The Schlernhaus, built in 1885, is the oldest of these rifugi and looks like a castle in the sky (or in the mountains!). A visit to this rifugio is a must when visiting this area. You may even find yourself rubbing elbows with famous mountain climbers!
The Grasleiten - Rifugio Bergamo
The Grasleiten - Rifugio Bergamo
The Grasleiten rifugio describes itself as having "a Tyrolean living room, called 'Stube' in German, that dates back to 1887. It is uniquely cosy and perfectly suited for hours and hours of storytelling, playing cards and making music together." Sit down and enjoy a slice of home made apple strudel or linzer torte!
The TierserAlpl - Rifugio Alpe di Tires
The TierserAlpl - Rifugio Alpe di Tires
The TierserAlpl is the most recent and most comfortable rifugio with warm water showers (a luxury up here!) and heated rooms. On cold days this easily tops my list for where to spend the night.
