The High Dolomites
This unique German speaking part of the Northern Dolomites (Alto Adige), boasts a fascinating local history and exceptional cuisine. A rich variety of wildlife including marmots and chamois and wild flowers which bloom in their thousands during spring and summer.
The Alta Via is a collection of high mountain paths crisscrossing the Dolomites and entirely alpine. Walking this route gives you the chance to stay in the Mountain huts (Refugios) at high altitude, which have accommodated walkers for many years and offer simple yet comfortable accommodation. Here you will experience the peace and tranquillity of high mountain walking.
This tour provides the perfect mix of walking, combining a few easier days walking when doing the round walks from the mountain huts, to longer more strenuous days when walking the stunning high mountain passes between each hut.
Your walking holiday in the dolomites includes six nights in mountain huts (refugios) staying in private rooms and one night in a B&B. You will spend two nights in Plätzwiese, Sennes and Fannes mountain huts, all surrounded by the beautiful peaks of the Dolomites and a comfortable guest house on the last night in the pretty town of San Vigilio. All breakfasts, picnic lunches and evening meals are included other than the on the last night. With comprehensive route notes, maps, detailed pre-departure information pack, baggage transfers and back up to ensure that you enjoy every minute of your stay in the Dolomites.
Highlights:
- Spellbinding views, wild open spaces, mountain lakes, jagged peaks
- Walking the Alta Via, high mountain trails
- Rich flora and fauna
- Superb local cuisine, delicious cheese and outstanding wines
- Opportunity to climb local peaks from the Refugios
- Warm & comfortable family run mountain huts
