Ücia Fanes-Hütte

This was the most luxurious hut on our alta via 1 trip. Staff was very friendly, they served us absolutely amazing vegan food, incl. vegan pesto and vegan ice cream that was obviously self-made. The location is amazing as well. The room was very comfy with indirect lighting, and there are free hot showers. We could easily spend a whole week there (if we want afford it).

This refugio was the most luxury one along the Alta Via 1 route. The rooms were small and functional but all hte other facilities were excellent. Clean bathrooms, spacy room during dinner and breakfast. Flexible service for the extra needs. Warm water and very nice nature around. I could sleep well here.

We put 2 stars not to the hut or food but exceptional to the receptionist Daniele. Besides the fact that she was not at her desk but when she finally showed up, she was neither nice nor helpful. I fully understand that the hut was overbooked and there is no free space but you still can be kind and sympathetic to the customers. The restaurant staff were great, kind, helpful and nothing to say.

Expect a bustling rifugio if you are staying here on the AV1. It is popular day hike, but does quiet down at night. Recommend hopping over to Laverella too! The rooms at Fanes were clean and comfortable. I felt safe as a solo female trekker. Staff was pleasant and food was good! Highly recommend.

A newly renovated, spacious refugio, super clean, comfortable, hot showers, very good food and wines. A lovely terrace overlooking the mountains. Perhaps the best refugio we've encountered.

A luxury rifugio which was more of a hotel in a remote location. Facilities were well thought out and there were extensive drying rooms for boots and clothing. Food was excellent and staff friendly and helpful.

Amazing find. This is more of a hotel and less of a rifugio. Has a washing machine for your laundry for 10Euro, and a drying rack, a kids area and absolutely amazing rooms. Dinner is more than ok and breakfast is good.

My favourite rifugio whisky doing Alta Via 1! Fanes had everything needed, the food was incredible and staff were very friendly. It is a short 5-10 minute walk to the microbrewery too. This rifugio has unlimited and free showers, delicious three course set dinners with generous salad options and an amazing breakfast with all dietary options catered for. My friend is coeliac and had no troubles with delicious food as well!
