イタリアの峠・トップ20

どちらの側から登っても素晴らしい登り、走るたびにいつも気持ちがいい

The Patern Saddle, also known as Forcella Lavaredo, lies at an altitude of approximately 2,454 meters between the Lavaredo Hut and the Dreizinnen Hut. It is one of the most famous viewpoints in the Sesto Dolomites and offers direct views of the imposing north faces of the Three Peaks. The pass is easily accessible, usually via the hiking trail from the Auronzo Hut, and is considered a key point on the classic circular route around the Three Peaks. Thanks to its location, it is not only a popular photo opportunity but also a place to linger before continuing on to the surrounding huts or embarking on more challenging mountain tours.

From the Rifugio Auronzo, a stunning panorama opens up: striking peaks tower into the sky, while the changing colors of sunrise and sunset bathe the rocks in a special light. Those who want to experience this atmosphere uninterrupted should arrive early in the morning—later in the day, the place quickly fills with visitors.

From the terrace while enjoying an espresso, you have a fantastic view of the Dolomites, such as the Rosengarten and the Peitlerkofel.

One of the longest funicular railways in the world. It's impressive how quickly the railway climbs the approximately 850 meters.

One of the longest funicular railways in the world. However, everyone wants to get in the front, so the front seats go very quickly. The second or third row is still interesting, though.

The Auronzo Hut is located along the Alta Via No. 4 "von Grohmann", a long-distance hiking trail that begins in San Candido in the Puster Valley, passes the Dreischuster Hut (Rifugio Tre Scarperi) and finally ends in Pieve di Cadore.

At an altitude of 2,333 meters, the Auronzo Hut sits amidst the impressive backdrop of the Three Peaks. Thanks to its convenient location, it is easily accessible both on foot and by car.

Guests can expect not only unparalleled views but also excellent cuisine and the warm hospitality of the team.
