Rifugio Tobià del Giagher

Rifugio Tobià del Giagher sits at 2,289m in the Dolomites' Fassa Valley, accessed via the Sella Pass area. Reach it in 2.5 hours from Passo Sella (2,240m) heading northwest through open meadows and limestone terrain. The approach is well-marked and moderately steep in sections. Most hikers combine this with multi-day traverses across the Sella massif or link it to routes toward Rifugio Fedare to the north.
The rifugio has 50 beds split between small rooms. Full meals available—expect hearty pasta, local cheese, and game in season. Morning packed lunches can be ordered. The kitchen serves dinner 18:30–19:00 sharp. Basic facilities include running water and pit toilets; showers are not available. Open mid-June through late September, though exact dates depend on snow melt and staffing. Weather here changes fast; afternoon thunderstorms are common in July and August.
Book 4–6 weeks ahead for July and August weekends. Contact directly via phone or hut website for current rates and availability. The hut fills on Saturdays during peak season. If you're hiking the Sella circuits, reserve both your hut and meals when confirming your accommodation plan.
