Great view or Rest bench on the way to the trilingual hut

Beautiful view of the valley with its imposing valley end and the glaciers above

Great hike to the Tabarettahütte👍. The view is amazing and the food is very good. The crisp ascent via no. 8 is worth it.

The refuge at the top of the three languages is right on the border between Italy and Switzerland. While the tourists are cavorting below you on the highest pass road in Switzerland (2,501 meters), you can enjoy the view up here undisturbed. In the Refugio you can strengthen yourself or book in for one night. An evening in the hut with people of different nationalities will definitely be sociable. If the Refugio Garibaldi is your final stop, you can get on the bus at the pass road. All information about the accommodation: https://rifugiogaribaldi.it/en

The Payer Hut (Payerhütte or Julius-Payer-Hütte) is an Alpine refuge located in the Ortles-Cevedale group, in the southern Rhaetian Alps. It stands at 3,029 m on the rocky ridge of Tabaretta, overlooking the valleys of Trafoi and Solda. The panorama extends from Val Mustair to the upper Val Venosta. It is an important and strategic support point for the popular normal route to Ortles. It also builds a rewarding destination for the hiker, who can enjoy an unparalleled panorama from here. The refuge, named after the famous cartographer and polar explorer Julius Payer, was built in 1875 by the Prague section of the then DOeAV. At the beginning it was a simple hut that could accommodate up to 30 people. Just a year after the opening, the first annex building was built. In 1885 the refuge was significantly expanded with the construction of an upper floor. Two years later it began to operate and in 1895 it exceeded 1000 visitors for the first time. The growing numbers made another expansion necessary. In 1909 a 3-storey building was built which housed 21 rooms with 48 beds, a warehouse, pantry, rooms for guides, a breakfast room and a coffee corner. During the First World War the refuge was occupied by the military and served as a rear station for the occupation troops on the summit of the Ortles. After the First World War the refuge became property of the Italian state and its management was entrusted to the Milan section of the CAI. Administrative management that lasted until 2010. In 1947 a fire, probably caused by lightning, destroyed the old building; the one from 1909 remained, which was consequently reorganised. From 1990 to 1994 major renovation works were carried out. Since 1999, the property has been owned by the Autonomous Province of Bolzano. www.payerhuette.com/it/

The Tabaretta Refuge (2,556 m) is an Alpine refuge in the Southern Rhaetian Alps, located on the crest of the Marlet ridge, at the foot of the north-eastern slope of Punta Tabaretta. Being located directly on the path that leads to the Payer Refuge, it is a popular destination for hikers starting from Solda and for mountaineers who want to try the Via Normale all’Ortles. From its terrace you can enjoy a beautiful view of the north face of the highest peak in South Tyrol, towards the Tabaretta via ferrata, the Sesvenna group and the Austrian Alps. The refuge, owned by the Reinstadler family, is open from mid-June to mid-October and has a capacity of 40 beds. It was built at the end of the 19th century by Alois Schöpf, owner of the “Außerortlerhof” in Solda. Sisters Theresa and Berta ran it until 1963, when their grandchildren took over. In 1974, Tabaretta was sold to Waltraud Burger. A year later, the “Ladum” cable car was built, which is still needed for supply today. Since 1980, with the help of Hans Reinstadler and his family, the refuge has been constantly renovated and expanded. Since 1987, the refuge has been run by Klaus Reinstadler and his wife Andrea. www.tabaretta.com
