Starting from Campitello di Fassa, the well-marked paths take you through rugged peaks and quiet valleys before reaching the famous Passo Costalunga. Highlights include Col Rodella (2,484 m), Kesselkogel (3,004 m) and Lake Antermoia (2,500 m).
The route weaves through high-altitude paths, rugged ridges and gentle slopes. You will see typical Italian huts in the most unlikely places, nestled in the rocks or surrounded by green pastures. Take the opportunity to stop and taste the local gastronomy, relax or drink a cold beer!
Every night a welcoming refuge awaits you, where you will be treated to hearty Ladin dishes and the warm hospitality of the Italian Alps. These cosy refuges are the perfect place to recharge your batteries after a rewarding day's walking. Ideal for hikers looking for a short but unforgettable adventure, surrounded by the raw nature and timeless culture of the Dolomites.
The itinerary begins in Campitello di Fassa, where a panoramic path leads through meadows and wooded slopes. The well-signposted path climbs steadily eastwards and then westwards, crossing the Col Rodella (2,484 m) and offering unique views of the Dolomites.
The walk is both manageable and pleasant, with gentle hairpin bends. Along the way you'll be rewarded with views of the Sassolungo massif and the valleys below, making this the perfect place to stop, take photos and soak up the alpine beauty.
At the end of the day you'll arrive at your refuge, where a hearty local meal and a warm retreat will set the tone for the adventures to come.
Alternative option: For a more relaxed start, take the cable car from Campitello to Col Rodella, a quick ride followed by an easy 15-minute walk to your refuge.
The second stage takes you through a variety of alpine landscapes with spectacular views at every turn. Starting on gentle terrain, the trail heads west towards the Sandro Pertini Hut, with breathtaking views of the Sassolungo Group and surrounding peaks. This section is perfect for warming up your legs and taking in the tranquil mountain scenery. Continuing along the well-marked path, the route gradually descends into Val Duron, a lush and peaceful valley of meadows and ridges. Here you'll pass the Rifugio Micheluzzi, an ideal place to stop and admire the quiet beauty of the valley before embarking on the more challenging part of the stage.
The final stretch is a steady climb to the Sas de Dona (2,665m), where the landscape changes to dramatic heights surrounded by towering limestone peaks. From here it's a rewarding descent to the Antermoia hut (2,496m) in the heart of the Catinaccio massif.
This stage offers a harmonious mix of gentle valley trails and challenging climbs, culminating in a tranquil alpine hut - the perfect place to recharge for the journey ahead.
Today's trek takes you through some of the most iconic landscapes in the Dolomites, culminating in the famous Rifugio Vajolet. Starting near the turquoise waters of Lake Antermoia, the trail climbs gently through rugged terrain surrounded by towering peaks. This alpine lake, framed by sheer cliffs, provides a picturesque backdrop to start your day.
As the climb steepens, you'll cross rocky sections near Cima di Laussa (2,876m), where the views become even more spectacular. The dramatic peaks, including the imposing Kesselkogel (3,004m), dominate the skyline and offer a sense of isolation and awe. Over the Lausa Pass, the trail descends through rocky terrain into a peaceful valley, eventually reaching Lago Secco, a tranquil spot ideal for a short break.
The last stretch begins with a right turn towards the Passo delle Pope, where the path gradually climbs along rocky paths. This section takes you to the Vajolet mountain hut, in a breathtaking setting.
