Rifugio Monti Pallidi is located in the Pian Schiavaneis area, along Strada De Sela, in one of the greenest parts of Canazei, at the foot of the Pordoi Pass. The area is typical of upper Val di Fassa, with meadows, coniferous woods and the dolomitic walls of the Sella group as a backdrop. The setting is that of a traditional alpine refuge, away from the traffic of the town centre but still reachable within a few minutes by car.
The Pian Schiavaneis restaurant is just 30 metres from the property, while the Pordoi Pass, one of the most famous passes in the Dolomites, is about 2.1 km away. The Sellaronda, the famous ski circuit connecting the valleys of Fassa, Badia, Gardena and Livinallongo, is 3.3 km away. For those arriving by train, the nearest station is Station Ruacia, 8 km away, while the reference airport is Bolzano Airport, about 35 km away. The area also includes the Crepes De Sela restaurant, 1 km away, and the Ciampolin Refuge, 1.6 km away.
In winter the refuge is a natural starting point for skiing on the Sellaronda circuit and for the slopes leading up to Piz Boè, the highest peak of the Sella group at 3,152 metres, visible about 3.1 km away. In summer the same area becomes suitable terrain for trekking and mountain biking, with trails leading to the Pordoi Pass and the surrounding high-altitude refuges. Canazei’s Playground, about 3 km away, is a convenient option for families with children on days off from sports.
