Rifugio Ghiacciaio Marmolada

Marmolada

The Rifugio Ghiacciaio Marmolada is located at an altitude of 2670 m above sea level and at the foot of the summit of the Marmolada glacier, above the Fedaia reservoir and offers ambitious bikers high alpine adventure in pure culture.


Description

The tour begins in Alba with the cable car ride up to Col dei Rossi and the subsequent ride on the Bindelweg trail. Just below Porta Vescovo, turn right onto the steep and rough descent down to Lago di Fedaia. Important: There are usually a lot of hikers on the (wide) Bindelweg, so take one of the first cable car rides. If you tackle the tour outside the operating times of the cable cars, start by climbing up the pass road to the Fedaia reservoir. You ride over the dam wall and reach the war museum a little later. From here, you have to carry and push your bike up to the Rifugio Ghiacciaio Marmolada. You are immersed in a high alpine adventure with a constant view of the Marmolada glacier and the surrounding rocky landscape. Once you reach the rifugio, you can enjoy the panoramic view and stop for refreshments.

The descent follows either trail 606 or 619, both of which are classified as S2 to S3, with the 619 trail offering the more adventurous descent as it is an old alpine trail (beware of the risk of falling). From the Hotel Villetta Maria far down at the bottom of the valley, the route then follows the Way of the Cross and the subsequent trail cutters back to the starting point in Alba. The tour is therefore in the middle of the freeride paradise of the Pordoi Pass and is a relatively untraveled route even in the high season in July and August thanks to the closed chairlift to the Rifugio.
