🤩 What are we doing?

An easy hike immersed in the wild nature of the Friulian Dolomites, to discover the Giaf Refuge, a welcoming alpine oasis at the foot of the imposing surrounding peaks. The route winds through shady woods and mountain paths, offering spectacular views of the surrounding peaks. Once you arrive at the refuge you will be Marco and Alessandro's guests, you can taste typical dishes and relax in the quiet of the mountain before returning.

🏔 Curiosities of the place

Rifugio Giaf is located at 1,400 meters above sea level and is a reference point for hikers heading towards the highest peaks of the Friulian Dolomites. The area is famous for its biodiversity, with a rich variety of alpine flora and fauna. In summer, sunrises and sunsets offer incredible colors that paint the Dolomite walls with golden and pink hues.

🎯 Practical advice

To safely tackle the trail, we recommend wearing suitable hiking boots, so you can walk with stability on any type of terrain. Dress in layers, because at high altitude the climate can change rapidly and it will be useful to easily adapt to temperature variations. Once you arrive at the refuge, let yourself be tempted by the local cuisine: a typical lunch with genuine products will be the perfect way to recharge your batteries. And don't forget your camera! The views that surround you will be so extraordinary that you will want to take them with you on your return.
