The rifugio Fodara is constructed so that it blends into the panorama as if part of the natural landscape. Each room is unique— simple, yet comfortable with picture windows or welcoming balconies. The atmosphere is authentic and delightful, perfect for quiet meditation and easy to make a friend. Enjoy a nice selection of beer, wine or spirits at the bar and don’t miss the local dishes, handmade pastas, breads and pastries, fresh meats, cheeses, soups and veges!

Take their recommendations for incredible hikes in every direction. Don’t miss this genuine fairytale when visiting the Dolomites. The only problem is.. you’ll never want to leave.

The scenery on the way up is already spectacular, and the best is yet to come when you reach the place. It's an elevated plateau with the Refugio in the center, a few scattered huts around, surrounded by mountains and a small stream running through. The restaurant itself serves local cuisine, on a sunny on the nice terrace. The food is good, the service is friendly. But the main asset obviously is the setting. When in the area, this definitely is a must do.

In spite of its remote setting, this rifugio has a lively bar with great prices for drinks. Dinner offered limited selections. But, everything tasted good. Room #7-8 was perfect for a family; 2 bedrooms with a total of 6 single beds sharing a bathroom; doors open onto a balcony.

The staff was warm and friendly and worked very hard to make sure everyone enjoyed their visit. Fodara’s location is a little off the Via 1 path, which makes you truly feel in the mountains. Gorgeous sunsets. Cute cows! We would definitely eat and stay here again.
