Monte Rite

Highlight • Summit

The top of Monte Rite, at 2,183 meters above sea level, offers a magnificent panorama of the Dolomites. The trails to get there climb quite a bit, but aren't technical, so running on them is certainly possible.

On the way to the top, you will find a refuge with a lovely garden-terrace where you can enjoy a beer and the famous "Museum in the Clouds". The Messner Mountain Museum, as it is called, is set up inside a fort from the Great War, from whose roof you can enjoy a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view of the Dolomites. Access to the roof is free, but there is a fee to enter the museum.

Messner Mountain Museum — Dolomites (Monte Rite)

Highlight • Monument

The museum in the clouds.
On the Monte Rite, in a fort from the First World War between Valle del Boite and Val di Zoldo (location: ⊙), at an altitude of 2181 meters, is the MMM Dolomites. This museum in the clouds was opened in 2002 [12] and focuses on the vertical world of the Dolomites. It shows the development history of the Dolomites as well as a part of the alpine history and its protagonists. (Source: Wikipedia)

In addition to the museum as such, a fantastic view over the Dolomites can be found.

Monte Rite Dolomites Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Very nice beer garden terrace, good and fast service, good food and, for the price, very large portions. The beer is Dolomiti Pils, a very tasty beer by Italian standards.

A little too much asphalt on the way back 4/5 km, but beautiful day and beautiful sun with a beautiful view of Pelmo

We left for the road and intercepted the path at the first corner. For the return, thunderstorm was threatening, and we decided to return to the road, where the shuttles also pass, safer in case of rain.

Today we went on a lovely hike from Passo Cibiane to MMM Dolomiti, the Mountain
Messner Museum. From the car park at the Passo we walked on asphalt up to the museum at Monte Rite at 2183 metres. We avoided the hiking trail because the conditions here are still spring-like. There was still snow a few days ago.

Unfortunately, given the high humidity in the air, at the top the view of the surrounding mountains was almost nil, but it is always worth getting to the Ritte war fort, a historic site of the World War

Easy and super rewarding excursion! One of the most beautiful places to admire Pelmo, but not only, Civetta, Tofane, Sorapis, Antelao, Dolomiti Friulane and many others. The road that goes up is snowy and always beaten by numerous passages.
Advice.
