It tastes even better at high altitude: South Tyrolean cuisine is characterized by rural down-to-earthness and Mediterranean lightness. On the mountains, you can enjoy the lovingly prepared dishes made from local products even more with a special view. Here is a selection of places to enjoy great food in an alpine atmosphere.
Easily accessible on foot – approx. 40 minutes from the arrival of the Col Rodella cablecar, or 1 hour and 15 minutes from Passo Sella Joch – the Sandro Pertini Refuge is an ideal destination for a hike with the family. The refuge is located in a green meadow and offers the perfect resting spot along the Sassolungo/Langkofel route. It is also at the crossroads of a number of trails to and from the Sasso Piatto/Plattkofel, Alpe di Siusi/Seiseralm, Duron Valley, Antermoia Catinaccio/Rosengarten, Dolomites Gardena/Grödner Dolomiten, including protected paths (Schuster) and high altitude hikes (Via Normale della Punta Grohmann/Grohmannspitze, Via Dimai, Via Harrer, Via Normale al Dente del Sassolungo/Zahnkofel, Cima Dantersass, etc.).
The refuge, named in memory of President of the Italian Republic, Sandro Pertini, offers refreshments (restaurant and bar) and the possibility to reserve an overnight stay.
