Rifugio Puez - Rifugio Firenze - Seceda

Duration: 00:15 h
Good morning! After a scrumptious breakfast, it is time to start moving. Don’t hang around too long at Puez so that you will still have enough time to take a break at Rifugio Firenze, another classic mountain hut in this part of the Dolomites. Also, you don’t want to be late at Seceda. If you miss the cable cars, it will still be an extra few hours to get down to Ortisei. No stress, you have the entire day to cover about 6 hours of hiking. If you do stop at Firenze (Regensburger Hütte), you must try their goulasch with polenta. Or anything, really. It is another 4 km hike to get to the ultimate goal of your journey: Seceda. Photo time! Well done. After this, you can take the cable car down. Feeling strong? It’s a 2.5 hour hike down to Ortisei. From here, you can then take the bus back to Sëlva.Good morning!

Reliable company! App is helpful but could be improved.
My friend and I used Bookatrekking to secure our accommodations for the TMB, after trying for several weeks to arrange them ourselves without success. Overall we had a positive experience and would recommend Bookatrekking for hikers who want to save themselves the hassle of setting up nightly lodging along their route. We didn't know when we paid for the service that we would also get free access to the Bookatrekking app. Overall, this was a big plus! The app is well-designed, consolidated all lodging info in one convenient place, and provided generally good navigation and info on each day's distance and elevation change. Some details of our itinerary were less than ideal (two very short hiking days in a row, followed by two very long ones in a row, for example) but it seemed everyone on the TMB had to finagle their route here and there to make it work, so this wasn't unique to Bookatrekking! All the days were doable. We wished the app included more information on what to expect for amenities and meals at each hut/refuge (for example, knowing which huts have laundry facilities and which huts serve scant breakfasts would help with planning). I did some in-depth research on Google instead, so we generally knew what to expect at each place, but most of our fellow Bookatrekking travelers did not. The other issue we and others had with the app was the navigation feature. Having nav right on the app was very convenient, but there were multiple (mostly short) sections of the trail where the app's route differed from posted signage. We always followed the app, and sometimes its alternate routes worked out well or seemed like improvements over the marked trail, but other times the app's routes were illogical or inconvenient. If the app is going to diverge from posted signs of a trail as well-marked as the TMB, we felt it should at least offer an explanation so hikers can make an informed choice on which route to follow. Finally, the app's daily route summaries gave us a false sense of security, so to speak, and we wish we had ignored them and relied on our guidebook instead. If Bookatrekking is going to offer these summaries, they should be more detailed. For example, one variant we took, the Fenêtre d'Arpette, was simply described in the app as "challenging but rewarding." It turned out to involve a long section of technical bouldering, which we handled fine, but less experienced/fit trekkers would have been hard pressed to navigate. All in all we had an amazing time on the TMB, Bookatrekking was a reliable service to set up lodging, and their app has a lot of potential but could use more detail!

Here is your translated review in…
Here is your translated review in English: --- My experience with the company was mostly positive, though there are a few areas that could use improvement. Let’s start with the positives: the booking process is intuitive, clear, and user-friendly. The information available in the app is helpful and well-organized for the trip, containing most of what you need to set out properly. The navigation app is overall effective and highly accurate (though there were three points where it missed the mark, so it's important to stay alert), and most of the accommodations booked were of a reasonable standard. I’d also like to highlight the company’s flexibility in dealing with a complex situation that almost forced me to postpone the trip. They allowed me to delay it by a full year, which I truly appreciate and deserves recognition. In terms of what could be improved, I’d suggest adding more detailed information about the types of accommodations—for example, on the last night we arrived at a place with no host at all, which wasn’t clear in advance. There were also a few issues related to information accuracy that somewhat affected the experience. For instance, the trek ends at a location from which you need to take a cable car (costing €18.5) to reach Chamonix, yet the app stated the trek ends in Chamonix itself. These kinds of inaccuracies can be frustrating in real time—not because of the cost, but due to the surprise factor. Regarding accommodations, there was a lack of consistency in quality. Also, since this is a pre-arranged full trek, I felt that the first and last nights were spent in places that didn't really suit the flow of the hike (on the first day, for example, I only walked two hours before reaching the destination). Overall, I would give the company a score of 8 out of 10. It enables people to complete a very popular trek within a relatively short timeframe. While the service fee isn’t low, it’s a worthwhile outsourcing solution. That said, as I’ve mentioned, there’s still room for better accuracy in route planning and information sharing. I can definitely see myself using the company’s services again. Thank you.

Alta Via 1 Review
My wife and I did the Alta Via 1 from 21 till 28 June. We are both fit and healthy and had prepared well for the trek. Our trek coincided with high temperatures throughout Europe, and they were felt by us on the trek even at high elevations. We really enjoyed the Dolomite experience, and we were able to negotiate the Bookatrekking app to guide us on the trail. We have a few points, however, we would like to address in review: 1. The App and navigation were useful. However, the day-to-day trek descriptions lacked sufficient detail of track conditions and identification of track numbers would have been useful. In some cases, the descriptions are misleading or just wrong. For example, on Day 8 “…as you make the final descent to the La Pissa bus stop, where the Alta Via 1 ends.” The La Pissa bus stop is not where the trek ends but is approximately 500 m to the north on the opposite side of the road. By the way, walking on the busy road verge to the bus stop was one of the most dangerous parts of the whole trek (the bus timetable is also hit and miss). 2. At times the GPS update on the navigation App was slow and positions were prone to jump around. This was particularly tricky at key track intersections, when decisions of the correct direction needed to be made. Location details of potable water sources would have been useful. The elevation profile is scaled for each day and would be more useful if this retained a common scale (horizontal and vertical) across all the days. 3. The quality of the Rifugios varied greatly. We didn’t mind the older Rifugio accommodation. However, quality of service at Rifugio Passo Staulanza was very disappointing. We were accommodated in a small bunk room with 16 others. There was very little ventilation for the number of people and the humid and hot temperatures were oppressive. The number of toilets and showers were inadequate for the numbers staying. The Rifugio management was clear that there was not potable water but pro-actively sold bottled water that was witnessed to be sourced from their own taps. Water use was discouraged yet they advertised spas. Also, I ended up having a discussion with management regarding the cost of a boxed lunch that was not pleasant. In general, we would prefer to know we were paying for fixed costs (accommodation and meals) and it was a surprise to be charged for water for dinner or tokens for showers at some places. All the extra hidden costs mount up.
