About
Rifugio Larici da Alessio sits at 1,658m in the Dolomites above the Val di Zoldo in Veneto. Reach it from Zoldo Alto in 2.5 hours via trail 433, a steady climb through mixed forest that gains 700m. The hut also connects to the broader network of Dolomite rifugi—it's roughly 3 hours south to Rifugio Fedare and 4 hours north toward the Ghedina area. The approach is well-marked but exposed in bad weather.
The refuge sleeps around 30 people in dorms. The kitchen serves dinner and packed lunches; half-board is available. Flush toilets and WiFi distinguish it from more remote huts—useful if you need to sort logistics mid-trip. The season runs late May through September, with weekends busier than weekdays. The hut feels lived-in rather than commercial; staff are friendly but expect a working mountain refuge, not a hotel.
Book direct by email or phone at least 4–6 weeks ahead for July and August weekends. In June and September you have more flexibility. The hut is popular with groups, so contact them early if you're traveling with others. Call ahead if weather looks uncertain—the location above tree line means it closes quickly in sustained storm systems.
