Located at 1,947 meters, Rifugio Venezia stands on the south-eastern slopes of the majestic Monte Pelmo, known as “il caregon del padreterno” (“the throne of God”), one of the icons of the Dolomites. Close to Passo di Rutòrto, on a wide grassy saddle, the hut offers a breathtaking panoramic view over the Cadore Dolomites and is an unmissable stop for those who love the authentic mountain experience.

The refuge can be reached through several hiking trails and is the ideal starting point for the ascent of Monte Pelmo along the famous Cengia di Ball. It is also perfect for relaxed walks through forests and pastures immersed in silence and nature.

Rifugio Venezia lies along the Alta Via No. 1 and connects with the Alta Via No. 3, making it a popular stop for long-distance hikers and walkers.
