Rifugio Emilio Comici is not just any refuge. It is a place where elegance meets the simplicity of the mountains, where you can enjoy gourmet dishes and taste fine wine while admiring the walls of the Sassolungo. Every detail is designed to offer you an unforgettable experience, combining taste, landscape, and hospitality.
You are at an altitude of 2,154 meters, in one of the most spectacular corners of Val Gardena, accessible in every season with the promise of an experience that goes beyond lunch.
Rifugio Comici is known for being a sanctuary for fresh fish from Grado at high altitude. A choice that may seem strange, but one that wins you over precisely for this reason.
Tartare, carpaccio, lobster, red prawns: every dish is made with carefully selected ingredients, delivered daily with almost surgical precision.
But the cuisine is not just about fish, because there are also traditional Ladin dishes, reinterpreted with taste and delicacy, for those who want something more typical. Everything is taken care of, from the presentation to the wine pairing, which comes from an excellent cellar, rich in local and national labels.
The atmosphere at Rifugio Comici manages to be both refined and authentic. Inside, light wood, blue finishes, and marine details create a unique environment: warm, bright, welcoming, with an ironic and contemporary touch.
The outdoor area, on the other hand, is one of the most popular spots for those looking for a terrace with spectacular views to enjoy lunch in the sun or an unforgettable aperitif.
In the summer months, it is the ideal place for a refreshing break after a long walk. In winter, enjoy a five-star lunch between descents on the Sellaronda, or an elegant aperitif with a view of the snow and musical atmosphere.
In summer, you can reach Rifugio Comici on foot, starting from Plan de Gralba, Passo Sella, or the Ciampinoi cable car mountain station. The trails are well marked and offer unique views of the Dolomite peaks, even for inexperienced hikers. A walk that is an experience itself, made even more special by the arrival.
In winter, Comici is perfectly located along the ski slopes: just follow the Sellaronda trail to find it on your way. It is one of the most popular stops for expert skiers and those who want to turn a day on the snow into something more.
