WHY THIS HIKE

The Sassolungo huts

The full circuit of a signature mountain.

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

The Sassolungo circuit is an immersion in the climbing history of the Val Gardena, in the heart of one of the most emblematic mountains of the Dolomites. The climb to the Forcella del Sassolungo — the long zigzag path up the scree — is the distinctive element of the route, and it can also be avoided by taking the cable car from the Passo Sella. With the Guidders we pass Rifugio Valentini, the Toni Demetz, the Vicenza and the Comici.

5 reasons to come - the complete circuit around the Sassolungo - the Forcella del Sassolungo, with its zigzag up the scree - four historic huts along the route - the cable car from the Passo Sella, for those who prefer it - the climbing history of the Val Gardena

Who it suits A long route with scree and constant ups and downs: good fitness and a sure step.

One of the signature mountains of the Dolomites: come and walk round it with the Guidders.
