Rifugio Socrepes
1.2
Veneto, Italy
About
Rifugio Socrepes sits at 2,284m in the Dolomites' Sexten Dolomites, above the Val di Fanes. Reach it from Passo Ghedina (2,315m) via a 2-hour scramble on well-marked terrain. The approach is rocky and exposed in places, especially the final pitch. Most hikers arrive from the Cortina d'Ampezzo side. Winter access is rarely possible.
The hut operates year-round and sleeps 30 people in mixed dorm rooms. Half-board includes a simple dinner and breakfast. The kitchen produces standard mountain fare: pasta, soups, grilled meat. Water comes from a spring. Toilets are basic but clean. There's no shower. The building is small and spartan—expect crowding on weekends. The terrace faces north across the fanes plateau, offering views to Ra Gusela and Passo Ghedina but limited sun in afternoon.
Book direct by phone or email at least 2 weeks ahead for summer weekends. July and August are busy. The hut closes sporadically during shoulder seasons—call first. Payment by cash only. Confirm your arrival time the day before. The manager is responsive but speaks limited English; try Italian or German. Winter visits require calling ahead to confirm access and staffing.
