2,842m
Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
About
Schöne Aussicht Hütte sits at 2,842m on the ridge between Val di Fassa and Val Gardena in the Dolomites. Reach it from Passo Ghedina (2,135m) in 2.5 hours via marked trail, or from Rifugio Ra Ghedina in 1.5 hours. The hut serves as a base for ridge traverses and scrambles across the Sassolungo massif. Winter access is limited to ski touring routes.
The hut runs year-round and sleeps 50 in dormitory rooms and a few doubles. Meals are hearty Alpine fare—expect pasta, polenta, and local cheeses. Hot showers are available. The SAT (Società degli Alpinisti Trentini) manages the hut. Staff speak Italian, German, and English. Wireless internet is unreliable above 2,800m.
Book 2–3 months ahead for July and August weekends. Contact the hut directly by phone (+39 462 601 407) or email for same-week slots. July and August are solid booked; June and September offer better availability. Winter booking is lighter but confirm conditions first—the hut closes occasionally after heavy snow. Half-board rates are standard; full-board discounts apply for groups of 8+.
