From the Auronzo refuge at 2,320 m above sea level is the starting point of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo excursion. It can be reached by going up the toll road from Misurina to the car park adjacent to the refuge.
Immediately our journey heads east, following the path with the n° 101. This first takes us to the Lavaredo refuge. Here it is a must to stop to enjoy the famous view of the imposing overhanging northern walls of the Tre Cime, obviously trying to take the most beautiful photo of this incredible panorama.
The Tour continues towards the Locatelli refuge at the Tre Cime. After a slight descent, the path continues first flat at the foot of Mount Paterno, and finally uphill to the Locatelli refuge at 2,438 m above sea level, very popular during the summer. Even from here the view of the imposing rocky giants is simply unique, a dream panorama that will remain in your heart.
From the Locatelli refuge we follow the path with the n° 105 in the direction of the “Malga Lunga / Lange Alm”. Just above this small refreshment point is the source of the Rienza stream and the lakes of the Tre Cime - a splendid place for a stop and a refreshing bath of your feet in the clear water. From here the path continues westwards, under the Cima Ovest, with some slightly more exposed sections, up to our starting point.
