Classic Italian Dolomites

Posted on

The trails here tend towards smooth and scenic, with many high traverses, such as around the rim of the aptly named Vallunga, or “long valley” which is 6 kilometers long with 1,500-foot high cliffs on both sides.

There is good access to mountain cable cars, so it’s often possible to skip the climb or the descent, if you want a shorter run. In the evenings you’ll enjoy hearty local cuisine and stay overnight in comfortable hotels. 

Our standard tour is eight days and seven nights. However, if you’re looking for a shorter or longer trip please get in touch and we’d be happy to discuss your options.
