A day at the Fanes Mountain Hut

The Fanes Mountain Hut is in the Fanes Alps overlooking San Vigilio di Marebbe. The mountain hut which opened in 1928 has a long tradition. The atmosphere has not changed over time: you can find photographs, souvenirs, stories and unique objects that recall the Ladin origin of the place. The marvellous view of the Fanes Group in the Dolomites, the rich culinary tradition and warm hospitality make a day at the Fanes mountain hut an unforgettable experience.

01. Excursions

The best way to start the day is with a walk through nature. The mountain hut is a real paradise for hikers and climbers. Surrounded by thick woods, snow covered meadows and with the majestic Dolomites as a backdrop, you can discover some of the most beautiful and exciting itineraries: on foot, by bicycle or with skis or snowshoes. There are plenty of occasions to meet the local fauna like the marmots that emerge from the rocks and accompany you along the way.
