Lagazuoi & Falzarego Pass
Lagazuoi / Passo Falzarego
Take the cable car from Falzarego Pass up to Lagazuoi at 2,752 m, where the hut terrace offers a 360-degree view of the peaks and tunnels can be explored on foot.
Falzarego Pass sits at 2,105 m, about 16 km west of Cortina d'Ampezzo. From here a cable car climbs in about 3 minutes to Piccolo Lagazuoi (2,752 m). The terrace of Lagazuoi Hut at the summit is one of the best viewpoints in the Dolomites, looking out over Marmolada, Tofane and Cinque Torri. During the First World War, Austro-Hungarian and Italian forces dug extensive tunnels through the mountain. Today they are open as an open-air museum, and you can walk down through them with a headlamp (about 2 hours). The cable car return fare is about €25 to €30 (check the official website for current prices).
