Hi Lara,
If you start in Colfosco (near the tourist office), it’s a 11.8 km hike to Rifugio Gardenaccia.
Time Needed: 4:40 hours
Elevation Gain: 960 meters
Elevation Loss: 551 meters

I would consider starting the hike at Passo Gardena. From the pass, you can hike to Rifugio Puez via Forcella Crespeina. Take a look at the description in our Sass da Ciampac trail guide.

And then from Puez hut, continue across the plateau to Gardenaccia Hut.

Passo Gardena – Rifugio Puez – Gardenaccia Hütte
Distance: 12.9 km
Time Needed: 4:40 hours
Elevation Gain: 714 meters
Elevation Loss: 780 meters

Have fun!
-Sabrina

Great blog! I am considering hiking from Colfosco, via rifugio Puez, staying overnight in Rifugio Gardenacia since your recommendation. However, since most people hike this hike fromout La Villa, I was wondering what would be the time to reach rifugio Gardenacia from Colfosco and whether there is a lot of altitude meters to cover?
Would be amazing to figure that out!
Kind regards,
Lara
