El Perro Negro's Day to Day Ramblings

Dolomites Alta Via 2 day 5

Rifugio Castiglioni Marmolada to Passo San Pellegrino. 14km, 1000+m ascent.

Very tough day ascending through the humid, oppressive pine forests near Malga to the pass at Forca Rossa. Then nice descent through colourful alpine meadows lined with wild flowers to San Pellegrino.

An alpine refuge sits at the base of the Marmolada mountain
