Tre Cime di Lavaredo in the Dolomites, Italy 🇮🇹 on Tre Cime di Lavaredo in the Dolomites, Italy 🇮🇹 on a moody day in July 🙃 

Who has already been here? 🤗
Staying overnight at the 📍Zittauer Hütte was one o Staying overnight at the 📍Zittauer Hütte was one of the highlights of the summer - it is at 2328m altitude and one of the few mountain huts where bringing a dog is allowed 🫶🙃
(In fact, with a dog you are guaranteed a room of your own so it’s even an advantage 😀)

Save it for your Alps bucketlist and hurry up because the summer is almost over 🤷‍♀️🥲

1. Unterer Gerlossee and the Zittauer Hütte
2. Fun transition as we reach the hut with @ashatravelss 
3. Late afternoon, as the day hikers leave, it gets empty around the hut 
4. The rooms are very cozy and spacious
5. From the hut, we continued the hike upwards and found a river at around 2600m
6. Boards games night at the Hütte :)
7. 30 minutes from the hut, there is another lake
8. My family 🙃

The hut is located in the Zillertal Alps, and anywhere you see around are waterfalls and lakes. We saw marmots too 🙃

Save this for your next sunny weekend adventure!
