Rifugio Carestiato lies atop Col dei Pass above Passo Duran. Initially, it was built to relieve Rifugio Vazzoler of Alta Via 1 hikers by providing another option to spend the night nearby.
The hut’s interior is traditional and rustic, featuring shared bedrooms with bunk beds. Rifugio is also well-known for its special Carestiato cakes, a secret recipe of the chef. And they go well with a cup of coffee on a chilly morning in the mountains.
