About
Rifugio Sette Selle sits at 2,014m on the Sette Selle saddle in the Dolomites, between the Tre Cime di Lavaredo massif and Passo Ghedina. The hut is a 2-hour walk from Passo Ghedina (via the marked trail towards Tre Cime), or 3 hours from Lago di Sorapis. Most parties reach it from the north via the Tre Cime circuit, which is the standard approach.
The hut holds 24 beds split between small rooms. Half-board is standard: a hot dinner and substantial breakfast come included. The kitchen serves simple mountain food—expect pasta, polenta, and local cheese. Water comes from a spring nearby. Opening dates depend on snowmelt but typically run June through September. October weekends sometimes stay open. The hut is staffed year-round only during summer months.
Book directly by email or phone. July and August fill 8–10 weeks ahead, especially weekends. June and September are less crowded but still need 3–4 weeks' notice. The hut prefers phone contact for availability checks, though email confirmations work. Winter access is for experienced winter climbers only—confirm conditions before heading up.
