The Dolomites Traverse
From Corvara to Cortina d'Ampezzo
Easily accessible from either Venice or Munich, the Dolomites are at the heart of the Alps. It is one of THE destinations for hiking, climbing, sight-seeing, and enjoying the pleasures of a summer holiday on the 'Old Continent'.
The Dolomites are a perfect fusion of Italian and Austrian cultures, which - luckily - means Italian charm, great Italian food and wine, Tyrolean guest houses, Austrian efficiency, and amazing dumplings, desserts and good beer!
Travel back in time to the Alta Badia, one of the most
picturesque valleys in the heart of the Dolomites and join us for
seven days of hiking surrounded by towering limestone cliffs, quaint
villages and fields of wildflowers.
Based near Cortina D'Ampezzo, home of the 1956 Winter
Olympics, our journey focuses on one of the most photogenic
areas of the Alps.
We offer two variations of hiking trips in the Dolomites:
1: The Dolomites Traverse: From Corvara to Cortina d'Ampezzo.
Moderate walks with options to extend or to sample the excitement of a via ferrata makes this trip the perfect fit for either the experienced hill walker or
the neophyte looking for fantastic food, breathtaking scenery and
WWI history.
2: The Dolomites Sampler:
The Sampler gives you the choice each day between a hike and a combination of hiking and via ferrate. We will stay higher up on the mountains, making excellent use of the charming South Tyrolean refuges most of the time. This trip is for the more advanced hikers, who are looking for a more adventurous itinerary, without having to be a mountaineer.
