the path entirely within the forest rich in beech and white and red fir trees is very evocative, the panorama that opens up upon arrival at the refuge repays every effort

The structure that houses the Rifugio Dolomites – Monte Rite was built at the beginning of the last century, when the Kingdom of Italy militarily fortified the Cadore area to protect itself from a possible Austrian advance. To this end, it built the so-called "Cadore-Maè Fortress," which included the Monte Rite complex. In 1917, after the defeat at Caporetto, the army abandoned this position. In the summer of 1944, the remains of the fortification served as a refuge for the Cadore partisans. In 1997, Reinhold Messner identified the Rite as the ideal location for his "Museum in the Clouds"; renovations began, which led to the inauguration of the museum and the adjoining refuge in 2002. Nestled just 20 meters below the summit, it enjoys a magnificent view of most of the Dolomite mountain ranges. From its terrace, the view of the Sassolungo di Cibiana is magnificent. It offers hikers cozy rooms (some with private bathrooms) and home-cooked meals featuring traditional dishes. Easily accessible from Forcella Cibiana year-round, it is a stop on the Alta Via delle Dolomiti no. 3 and the Anello Zoldano. The refuge, owned by the Municipality of Cibiana di Cadore, is open from May to October and on winter weekends when the weather is nice.
