There was once an Austrian gentleman who believed in tourism in the Dolomites, when there were still no roads. It was this man, Theodor Christommannos, who at the beginning of the 20th century conceived the idea of the Dolomites road, and was among the first to believe in the Rifugio Roda di Vael, on the south side of the Catinaccio Group. That was a hundred years ago and if you come up from Carezza you’ll find a statue dedicated to Christomannos on the path, and then this refuge with its (beautiful) wooden-shingled exterior. Roberta Silva is the passionate, imaginative warden of this refuge, taking over from her husband (and mountain guide) Bruno Deluca.
Open
From 28 May to 9 October
Before leaving for your hike, always contact the manager to verify the actual opening of the mountain hut
Walks
Rifugio Vaiolet can be reached via the Cigolade pass in 2 ½ hours (difficulty E), while it takes just under an hour to get to the Rifugio Paolina on the easy Masarè footpath (E). Roda di Vael can be climbed by way of Passo del Vajolon (2 hours with a stretch of protected path, difficulty EEA) or the difficult Masarè via ferrata (5 hours, difficulty EEA). The whole Catinaccio Tour, which passes Rifugio Fronza, Passo Santner and Passo Cigolade is very long and challenging; the route can be done over two days, difficulty EE).
