WHY THIS HIKE

Slataper: high-altitude bivouac

A bivouac at 2627 meters, nestled in the heart of the Sorapiss. It can only be reached on foot.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from San Vito di Cadore, with the cool morning air keeping us company. The trail is an out-and-back that climbs unhurriedly through the woods, touching the Rifugio Scotter and then the Rifugio San Marco, before tackling the most beautiful and demanding stretch towards Forcella Grande. From there, the last section winds through rocks and ledges, with the Bivacco Slataper suddenly appearing, tiny against the Dolomite walls. At altitude the air becomes light and the summer heat stays behind in the valley.

The bivouac is a waypoint for full-fledged alpine routes; we stop here, where the mountain starts to get serious, to enjoy the silence and the view of the Sorapiss spires.

5 reasons to come - a real bivouac, right in the midst of the wildest Dolomites - two refuges along the route for a break - the final stretch through rocks and ledges, a genuine adventure - panoramic views of the Sorapiss walls - a cold beer together at the end of the day

Who it's suited for You'll need trained legs and a desire to walk for a long time: the route is long with a significant elevation gain, but technically simple, with no equipped passages.

With the Guidders, this climb is done together: book your spot and come discover the Sorapiss with us.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Alessandro, I'm 35 and I live in the heart of the Dolomites, in Cadore. I'm a mid-mountain leader with the Collegio Guide Alpine del Veneto and a UIMLA member, with a degree in Sport Science, an MTB guide and — yes — a sommelier too: after a hike, a good glass is never out of place. 🍷 I live the mountains in every form they come in: trekking, trail running, mountain bike adventures. Moving in nature is pure energy for me, discovery, feeling, and sharing it is the part of the job I never tire of. Panoramic ridge or woodland singletrack, the goal is the same: a real, active day that puts you back together. See you in the mountains, Guidders!
