Santner Pass Hut – Santner Pass Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Rifugio Passo Santner, inaugurated in the summer of 2022, is a pyramid-shaped structure covered in metal, located at 2,732 meters in the Catinaccio massif. Situated at the watershed between the Tires and Fassa valleys, the refuge is accessible via challenging trails and a via ferrata, increasing the number of beds from 12 to 36 compared to the previous refuge inaugurated in 1956.

Designed by architect Lukas Tammerle, it has sparked controversy among environmental associations, collecting over 55,000 signatures against its construction, but it also received a special mention at the Wood Architecture Prize 2024, thus generating a heated debate on sustainability and the integration of contemporary design into the Dolomite landscape.
