About
Baita Colmont sits at 1854m in the Dolomites, accessed via the Val di Fassa from Canazei. The approach takes 2.5 hours from Passo Fedare, following waymarked trails through larch forest that open onto alpine meadow. The hut works as a base for ascents of Sassolungo and Passo Ghedina, or as a waypoint on longer ridge traverses across the Sella Group.
The hut offers 30 beds in mixed dormitories and small private rooms. Meals are hearty—expect pasta, polenta, local cheese, and game when available. The kitchen produces good coffee and stocks chocolate and energy bars for early starts. Showers are available but hot water is limited; plan accordingly. The hut opens mid-June through mid-September, with the busiest period July through August. October weekends sometimes stay open for autumn alpinism.
Book directly by phone or email at least 4 weeks ahead for July and August. June, September, and October typically have space with 1–2 weeks' notice. Half-board (bed and dinner) is standard; full board includes packed lunches. Arrive before 18:00 if you've booked dinner. The hut accepts cash and bank transfers; card payment is unreliable at this elevation.
