Author’s recommendation
The enormous eastern face of the Catinaccio is a true masterpiece of nature. In German, the peak is known as Rosengarten (the Rose Garden). This refers to both the alpenglow phenomenon (“enrosadira” in the local Ladino, which means “to turn pink”), and to a peculiar local legend that we suggest you investigate yourself.

Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
After having climbed up to the Ciampedie clearing with the ski lift, you walk along the flat trail marked 540, following the directions for “Gardeccia”.
The path continues over several up and down sections, winding through a sparse wood until it reaches the mountain hut, located on the upper meadow of Gardeccia locality, in the upper Val del Vajolet.
To return, you follow the same route backwards.
N.B: the mountain hut can be reached comfortably from the bottom of the valley with the shuttle bus from Pera di Fassa (this service is active from the end of May to the beginning of October).
