DESCRIPTION
Circular hike to the Rifugio Carè Alto.
The Rifugio Carè Alto - Dante Ongari is located a thousand meters below the summit of the peak whose name it bears.
The paths of this itinerary are all tough: almost 1500 meters in altitude in 13 km. So it is suitable for more trained hikers. From the car park to the refuge there are 1200 meters in altitude and it takes about 3 and a half hours to walk. If the day is sunny and clear, you can enjoy a beautiful view.
This area is full of tangible memories of the Great War.
