コルティナ・ダンペッツォの絶景の山頂・トップ20

Thanks to its strategic position, the Auronzo refuge offers easy access to one of the most famous excursions in the area. In addition to being a convenient stopping point, the refuge has hospitable services and a kitchen that serves tasty local dishes, perfect after a day of trekking.

Standard starting point for climbing tours to the Three Peaks, but also a tourist magnet. The food is ok, nothing more or less. On quieter days the staff is really friendly, otherwise it gets lost in the rush of tourists. Nothing as a goal in itself, but useful for the cake when you're there.

You can see sport climbers on every corner. Just pause and watch the ladies and gentlemen doing their great sport. Really nice to look at.

Obviously a paradise for sport climbers. We were able to discover climbers in all possible and sometimes impossible places.

the hike from the closest cable car (Rifugio Averau) on a summer day is similar to the exit of a subway station in term of people density ! Fortunately, the view on the top is rewarding. And the best comes when you go down on the north ridge: after 5 minutes, the crowd is behind and you can enjoy a very nice walk. Beware of the path: 2 short sections of 40m are equipped with a cable. Easy if you have a sure foot.

Great location, good food, very friendly staff. No water for showering, hardly any power sockets in the rooms, so a power bank is necessary.

We walked today 8-6-2023 from Averau to Nuvolau (after starting at Passo Giau). To be clear: the stretch to Nuvolau is not for everyone as far as we are concerned. Today the stones and moss were wet. There was a real risk of falling. It's a real challenge...

The Nuvolau refuge is located on the top of Monte Nuvolau at 2575 metres, in the municipality of Cortina d'Ampezzo and can only be reached on foot. Source: https://rifugionuvolau.it/?page_id=253
