Rifugio Città di Vittorio Veneto

Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy Write a review

About

Rifugio Città di Vittorio Veneto sits at 2,236m on the Dolomites' eastern edge in Friuli Venezia Giulia. Reach it from Passo Tre Croci (2,033m) via a 1.5-hour walk north across open high pasture. The trail is straightforward and marked clearly. From Cortina d'Ampezzo, drive to the pass (30km), then hike. Alternatively, approach from the Tre Rifughi trail system if you're linking multiple huts.

The rifugio has 40 beds split across small dormitories and a handful of doubles. Half-board is standard—dinners feature local mountain cooking, breakfasts are basic. The bar serves hot drinks and snacks throughout the day. A shower is available. The hut runs from mid-June through September; snow can close access before late June. Winter closures are firm, not negotiable.

Book directly by phone ahead. July and August fill quickly, especially weekends—call 6–8 weeks in advance if those months are your target. June and September are quieter and offer reliable weather for multi-day trips. There's no online booking system; a brief call confirming bed count, arrival date, and half-board is all you need. The staff speak Italian and basic English.
