What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors appreciate the stunning panoramic views and the convenience of the chairlift for accessing hiking trails. The friendly staff and the scenic beauty of the mountain landscape are frequently highlighted. However, some note the chairlift's age and the challenging nature of the hike to Olbe lakes, with occasional closures of the Rifugio at the top being a drawback.
"The 2-person chairlift first takes you to the first station where you transfer to the second chairlift, which takes you to Rif. 2000.
The rifugio is closed in August 2025.
We went to the lakes of the Olbe on the number 135.
Friendly cable car operators who give you instructions for the descent.
We expect the renovation of the cable car and the route, which is abandoned..."
Adrijana Godina
"The chairlift is a bit old and in need of renovation. The refuge at the top was closed. The tourist office told us it would take about an hour to reach the lake, with a 200-meter elevation gain. It seemed like a walk in the park... but instead, it's a beautiful, rocky, and challenging descent, and the hike takes an hour and a half. The natural scenery is truly beautiful."
Cynthia Gregory
"The chairlift is located in the town of Sappada (UD).
It is a two-seater chairlift, divided into two sections.
The €13 return ticket allows you to use both sections of the chairlift up to Rif. 2000 (currently closed), and then access hiking tours.
Friendly staff.
In my opinion, it is not suitable for people with disabilities."
