The Rifugio Fredarola is located along the “Via del Pane” (Viel del Pan – Bread Way), an ancient mountain route that runs above Lake Fedaia. A breathtaking view over the Marmolada mountain.

Author’s recommendation

We strongly suggest travelling along the “Viel del Pan” - an essential hike not only in the upper Val di Fassa but in all of Trentino, owing to its sensational view over the entire Marmolada and over Lake Fedaia.
