If you adventure a little further than the mountain hut, you will be flabbergasted by the incredible shapes and colours of the “Denti di terra rossa” [red earth teeth] of Val Duron.

Tips, hints and links
Start
Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
From the parking area at the feet of Val Duron, you follow the dirt road that runs along the bottom of the valley of Rio Duron (Ruf de Duron). You climb along the forest road to an elevation of about 1600 m where, at “Baita Fraines”, you reach a fork in the road. Here you leave the forest road and take the mule track/path on the left, which climbs up to Rifugio Micheluzzi, crossing a beautiful forest on the river’s right hand side (on your left hand side as you climb up). From the fork in Fraines, you can also continue to follow the “main” dirt road, as it also leads directly to the mountain hut, also following the Ruf de Duron.
You return along the same route.
VARIATIONS:
Rifugio Micheluzzi can be comfortably reached with the Jeep-shuttle service. Information available from the Tourist Office.
