After we finished our hike around Lago Di Braies, In Case you missed that video here is the link : • LAGO DI BRAIES, PRAGSE...
We drove to Passo Giau. This was our first experience of staying in a Mountain Rifugio, and it certainly lived up to all our expectations, as we chose Rifugio Scoiatolli, which provides modern facilities, fantastic dining options, comfortable beds and stunning views of the mountains.
It is recommended to book early to get the private room options (the bathrooms are all shared, but were clean and hygenic).
Getting to the Rifugio can be done via two hiking routes from Paso Giau. The route we chose (Route 443) starts from behind the Berghotel Paso Giau, and takes you through a series of rocky and steep mountain faces before ending in a steep hike up to reach the Rifugio.
The views from the hike are quite stunning and while the hike was reasonably tough, the experience was rewarding. The hike took us about 2 hours, and was a medium to tough level hike, so proper hiking gear is recommended.
The Rifugio had great options for dinner and breakfast, along with a good selection of wines and beers to enjoy after a day of hiking and exploring the area. Do try the Tiramisu if you fancy something sweet...
One of the advantages of staying at the Rifugio is that you can wake up early in the morning to capture the stunning vistas as the sunshine fills the valley and comes through the mountains, and the peaceful morning is not disturbed by tourist crowds.
Getting back to Paso Giau, we decided to hike to Rifugio Averau (30 minutes from Scoiatolli) and take the ski-lift down to Rifugio Fedare, and hike back to the Hotel, which took another hour.
The hotel is a favored hot-spot for Bikers and Cyclists, and serves a good selection of food and desserts. We tried an Apple Strudel with Ice-Cream. We then made a short visit to Colle Santa Lucia before heading onward to our next hike to Rifugio Locatelli.
