Walking in the Heart of the Dolomites

  • Rewarding walks through flower-filled meadows dotted with wooden huts and Alpine cows
  • Discover the Ladin culture, hospitality and cuisine; all dinners are included
  • Enjoy spectacular views over the Dolomites from viewpoints at 2,500m
  • Relax at the end of a hike with a beer at your comfortable 3* hotel
Experience classic Alpine hiking in South Tyrol’s Alta Badia region; an impressive arena of Dolomite peaks combined with green meadows, idyllic villages and the traditional Ladin culture and hospitality. Stay in one village and enjoy included dinners at your hotel each night. Take on challenging and rewarding hikes through the Puez-Geisler and Fanes-Sennes Nature Parks, enjoying views of Dolomite giants such as Tofana (3,244m), Marmolada glacier (3,342m) and Civetta (3,218m). Use cable cars and chairlifts to reach high-level trails in no time at all; maximising your time in the high mountains without staying in mountain huts. Spend 6 nights in a comfortable, family run 3* hotel in atmospheric Corvara. Enjoy homemade feasts at your hotel, often featuring South Tyrolean specialities like dumplings, speck (smoked ham), polenta and apple strudel, washed down with local beer or wine - the perfect end to a classic Alpine day.
