TREKKING TO THE TISSI REFUGE

Form Lake Coldai through the Civetta Valley on one of the most spectacular routes in the Dolomites. If you look up to the rocky summit above Alleghe, you will spot a flagpole with the Italian flag and a summit cross: this is Col Reàn, situated near the Attilio Tissi Refuge at the foot of Civetta. The Tissi Refuge stands below the majestic and awe-inspiring northwest face – also referred to as the “Kingdom of the sixth grade” – and is popular with walkers who stop there for refreshments or even stay the night on their climbing expeditions.
