Venezia Hut

The refuge is located at the foot of Pelmo. The Alte Vie delle Dolomiti 1 and 3 pass through here. Furthermore, in this place you can admire Monte Cristallo, Croda Marcora and Antelao.

Rifugio Venezia (hut) is located at 1947 mt right below Pelmo. from here pass Alta via # 1 and Alta via # 3. Great view on Cristallo, Croda Marcora and Antelao.

Mountain hikers with a head for heights and climbing experience (climbing up to II degree) can walk the Ball Band unsecured. Helmet recommended!

The tour description I used:

bergstieg.com/touren/klettern/via-normale-normalweg-monte-pelmo

Recommendation: Overnight stay at the Venezia Hut, Rifugio Venezia.
We started from there at 6 a.m., left the ball band behind us around 7:15 a.m., were in the upper basin, where we saw the summit of Monte Pelmo for the first time, by 8:30 a.m. and arrived at 9:30 a.m summit. (2.5 hours for the descent to the hut and another 2 hours to the car in Zoppe di Cadore)

The hut crew (young Italians with no Pelmo experience) spoke of a 5-hour climb to the summit and a 3-hour descent.
