Santner Pass Via Ferrata

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

In summer the last train leaves the Kölner Hütte at 5:30 p.m. ... You should plan for that if you don't want to run down

Santner Pass Hut – Santner Pass Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Rifugio Passo Santner, inaugurated in the summer of 2022, is a pyramid-shaped structure covered in metal, located at 2,732 meters in the Catinaccio massif. Situated at the watershed between the Tires and Fassa valleys, the refuge is accessible via challenging trails and a via ferrata, increasing the number of beds from 12 to 36 compared to the previous refuge inaugurated in 1956.

Designed by architect Lukas Tammerle, it has sparked controversy among environmental associations, collecting over 55,000 signatures against its construction, but it also received a special mention at the Wood Architecture Prize 2024, thus generating a heated debate on sustainability and the integration of contemporary design into the Dolomite landscape.

Tschagerjoch West Ascent

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

From the Kölner Hütte the path becomes quite demanding with some easy climbing passages to the narrow Tschagerjoch (2670m).
The wildness of the mighty Dolomites comes into its own here.

October 3, 2023,🧗‍♀️ Santnerpass - Klettersteig 🧗

At the end of this year's hiking tour in the Rosengarten, we took the train up to the Kölner Hütte and from there to the Santnerpass via ferrata. The path has many sections that are free to climb. It's a lot of fun.
From the Santner Pass then down towards the Vajolethütte, but first on a mountain path to the …

You should definitely have appropriate equipment on the via ferrata. We descended the via ferrata. Going up is likely to make more sense.

Demanding throughout, both in terms of height and technique on the unsecured steep passages, good surefootedness required

Our ultimate tour in the heart of the Rosengarten. It includes everything from climbing the Santner via ferrata (2-level), the modern Santner Pass hut, the Vajolett Hut, the Vajolett Towers, and the descent to the Kölner Hut via the Coronenle Pass. An exciting and unforgettable day. 🌞😍💚❤

Unfortunately, it started to sleet earlier than expected in the morning, so the via ferrata was cancelled and the route via the Tschager Joch and the Vajolet Hut was chosen. The path to the Taschager Joch (the first part is secured with a rope) was simply mystical... we felt like we were on the way to Moria☺️. On the other …
