Great scenic trail at the foot of the Langkofel walls

As a brilliant high promenade between the Sella and Rosengarten groups, the Friedrich-August trail is highly popular among Dolomite connoisseurs. Its eastern section runs along the south slope of the magnificent Langkofel group from Sella to Fassajoch and to the Plattkofel hut located there. Captivating views of Marmolada and the Fassa Dolomites accompany us along the way.

From Hotel Passo Sella Resort, ascend the pass road a short distance, then take a road to the right (south) to Sellajoch, 2213 m, with Rifugio Valentini on the left below. The road (path no. 557), along the east slope of the Langkofel group, goes southwest to Saleihütte, 2222 m, and up to Forcella Rodella, 2308 m. Into the south side of the group to Friedrich-August hut, 2298 m. Along grassy slopes westward to Rifugio Sandro Pertini, 2300 m, and further, up and down over a shoulder, to Plattkofel hut, 2300 m, at Fassajoch.The road no. 533 leads down east towards Plattkofelalm, 2248 m. Now alongside the Rio di Pegn to the south, then through forest down to Rifugio Micheluzzi, 1860 m, in the charming Duron valley.
