Rank : 9.0 (average on 1 votes)

Coordinates : 46.583156, 12.193075 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : The refuge Guido Lorenzi, at an altitude of 3000 meters, is the highest of the Dolomites and is nestled between the peaks of the Cristallo group; from here you can admire a stunning 360 degree view, including all the shelters in which they state is perhaps the most beautiful! With a little luck, you can take pictures of spectacular sunrises and sunsets; who has mountaineering experience can also make several railways that depart from the shelter.

Recommended equipment : wide-angle, standard zoom and possibly one tele zoom (eg 70-200) for details of the landscape, most obviously the tripod.

Best months : Usually the shelter is open from June to September; please visit www.rifugiolorenzi.it and phone calls (the shelter number is +39 866 196 0436) to ensure that the shelter is open. During periods of closure chairlift it is off and walk up can be difficult or impossible outside of the summer.

How to get there : Park your car in the huge dirt parking (and free) for comparison to the Restaurant Rio Gere, just a few km from Cortina d'Ampezzo to Passo Tre Croci. From the car park (altitude of 1700 meters) you can take a chairlift to Son Forca (2,200 meters), and from there you take the cable car leading to Lorenzi to 3000 meters. The ticket costs 23 euro (June 2016) outward / return; It allows to reach the shelter without any effort. In the summer season, who has experience and training can also reach the refuge on foot, along the path that runs alongside the chair lift; the stretch from Son Forca at Lorenzi is extremely steep and can be dangerous, especially if there is snow; if you are not experienced I suggest you take the cable car !!!

Visits : The cable car costs 23 Euros, and an overnight stay at the refuge currently costs 28 Euros (shared dormitory berth), or 50 including dinner and breakfast.

Notes : At the shelter there is a good network coverage, and with a little luck even 3G / H +. Remember that you are at 3000 meters, at dawn the temperature is cold even in summer so bring a down jacket and gloves :-)
