Rifugio Firenze from Selva di Val Gardena

DESCRIPTION
Beautiful excursion with snowshoes in a spectacular natural scenery.
The itinerary, as well as being scenic, is always kissed by the sun. Gradually, gaining altitude, the view of the Odle and the Sassolungo and Sassopiatto group becomes more and more interesting. The tour does not present particular technical difficulties and / or particularly dangerous points for avalanches. On returning from Col Raiser, you must be careful not to walk inside the ski slopes.

ITINERARY
From the Vallunga car park (1615 m) go back along the asphalted road for a few meters and then turn right onto a dirt road marked 26. In the locality of Daunëi, continue on path 3 and, after passing the Rifugio Juac (1905 m), you arrives at the Rifugio (2040 m). Now take the 2 and then the 4 to reach Odles Hütte (2100 m) and Col Raiser (2105 m). Descend on path 4 arriving at the Gamsblut hut (1965 m). Continuing on 1A you return to the Rifugio Juac and then on 3 and 23 you return to the starting point.
