Fantastic terrace overlooking the Dolomites

Magical views of the Dolomite peaks

The structure that houses the Rifugio Dolomites – Monte Rite was built at the beginning of the last century, when the Kingdom of Italy militarily fortified the Cadore area to protect itself from a possible Austrian advance. To this end, it built the so-called "Cadore-Maè Fortress," which included the Monte Rite complex. In 1917, after the defeat at Caporetto, the army abandoned this position. In the summer of 1944, the remains of the fortification served as a refuge for the Cadore partisans. In 1997, Reinhold Messner identified the Rite as the ideal location for his "Museum in the Clouds"; renovations began, which led to the inauguration of the museum and the adjoining refuge in 2002. Nestled just 20 meters below the summit, it enjoys a magnificent view of most of the Dolomite mountain ranges. From its terrace, the view of the Sassolungo di Cibiana is magnificent. It offers hikers cozy rooms (some with private bathrooms) and home-cooked meals featuring traditional dishes. Easily accessible from Forcella Cibiana year-round, it is a stop on the Alta Via delle Dolomiti no. 3 and the Anello Zoldano. The refuge, owned by the Municipality of Cibiana di Cadore, is open from May to October and on winter weekends when the weather is nice.

Monte Rite (2,183 m) is a densely wooded mountain in the Zoldo Dolomites, rising to the right of the Bóite stream, above the Chiusa pass. On its southern slope, it dominates the village of Cibiana. The summit ridge consists of a long ridge connecting Col Alto to Forcella Dèona. From the summit, there is a privileged view of the Sassolungo di Cibiana on one side and the Central Cadore Dolomites on the other. Along its ridge are fortifications built during the Great War, restored to house the current MMM-Messner Mountain Museum, an initiative of renowned mountaineer Reinhold Messner based on a restoration project developed by the University of Architecture of Venice - IUAV. Inside, a large gallery of paintings depicting the Dolomites, from Romanticism to the present day, is housed. There is also a collection of objects and documents belonging to great mountaineers, which chronicle the evolution of rock climbing. https://www.messner-mountain-museum.it/it/dolomites/museo/

Extremely touristy refuge.

Attention!!! Closed from Dogna August 25th to October 31st, 2025 The view of the dam is certainly beautiful, but it's better to drive towards Venice on the other side until you reach the next bridge.

Attention! The road from Dogna is closed from August 25th to October 31st. Today, our alternative was to drive along the other side of the river to Provagna, after having driven to the closure.

Recently the road that leads to the top has been paved up to about 500 meters from the fort. This makes the climb almost entirely rideable even with road bikes. Mountain Bike or Gravel recommended. Please note that from June to the end of September the road is used by shuttles that take you to the museum.
