In Transit Blog: In the Dolomites, New Hut-to-Hut Trips for Skiers

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 13 Juli 2013 | 18.11

In a snowy twist on inn-to-inn hikes, new rifugio-to-rifugio – also known as hut-to-hut — trips in the Dolomites offer skiers the chance to travel laterally as well as vertically.

The Italy-based ski outfitter Dolomite Mountains plans to expand its "ski safaris" next winter that range over 746 possible miles of runs in 12 ski areas linked under one ski pass.

The program began last winter with two itineraries; the trips will expand to six new routes, including a gourmet-focused trip featuring meals from Michelin-starred chefs in the huts and a family-friendly one.

Most trips start in Alta Badia and explore Dolomites peaks where World War I battles raged, the celebrated ski area of Cortina d'Ampezzo and the Marmolada Glacier on the region's highest peak at nearly 11,000 feet.

The rifugi, or mountain huts, primarily serve hikers in summer with only a few open in winter. Accommodations range from dormitory-style bunks to private bedrooms with attached baths.

Available mid-December until April, all outings are guided by English-speaking ski experts (though cheaper, nonguided options are available), and luggage is transferred each evening to meet skiers at their mountain hut or village hotel. Custom-planned itineraries offer options for all levels of skiers. Four-day trips start at 1,820 euros (about $2,310).
