🤩 What are we doing?

A panoramic hike in the Friulian Dolomites, with a circular route that starts from the suggestive Rifugio Giaf and offers breathtaking views of spectacular peaks such as Costòn del Boschèt and Monte Vallonut. The itinerary passes through woods and clearings, offering encounters with local fauna and an incredible variety of alpine flowers. After the walk, you can relax at the refuge with a typical lunch and perhaps indulge in a bit of relaxation in the outdoor hammocks.

🏔 Curiosities of the place

The Anello Bianchi is a trail that offers a unique perspective on the surrounding landscape, allowing you to admire the bell tower of Casòn from the Boschèt, a panoramic point overlooking Forni di Sopra. This area is rich in biodiversity and, with a bit of luck, you can spot chamois along the way. The Rifugio Giaf, located at 1,400 meters, is a reference point for hikers and mountain lovers.

🎯 Practical advice

To best tackle the trail, wear hiking boots that guarantee comfort and safety on any type of terrain. Dress in layers, because even in summer the weather in the mountains can change quickly. If you want to live an authentic experience, book lunch at the refuge: typical dishes await you that will give you new energy to continue. Finally, leave early in the morning: you will be able to enjoy the tranquility of the trail and capture the breathtaking views that will accompany you along the way in the best light.
