Description

Ascend to Rifugio Faloria, at an altitude of 2,120 m, which can be reached by cable car from the centre of Cortina. Once at the mountain hut, you can admire the entire Valle d’Ampezzo from above and enjoy a perfect view of the Tofane, the ski area that hosts the Alpine Ski World Cup races, the splendid Pomagagnon and the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. From here you can take the Dolomieu path 212, a very scenic hiking path, just under 4 km in length, which you will walk downhill to the town of Rio Gere. The gently sloping path initially follows the ridge of rocky ridges and then enters the forest of larch, stone pine and fir, becoming a dirt road. It has no technical difficulties and offers spectacular views of the Tofane, Pomagagnon, Cristallo and the Valle d’Ampezzo. From Rio Gere, you can return to Cortina by public transport (check the Dolomiti Bus timetable) or on foot along path 211 as far as the El Brite de Larieto farmhouse, and then along path 206 as far as the intermediate station of the Faloria cable car in Mandres, where you can take the cable car back to the centre of Cortina.
