Program
First day
Whether you have chosen the short 4-night package or the full 8-day package 8 days in the Dolomites, our journey begins in one of the most charming villages in the Dolomites. Welcome to Alleghe, gateway to the Belluno Dolomites, easily accessible, is the ideal starting point for a trekking holiday. We settle into our hotel, which has a wellness area and an outdoor terrace with a bar. In the afternoon, we meet our guide, who will accompany us over the next few days as we discover the Dolomites. It will also be the perfect time to get to know the rest of the group, perhaps with an aperitif together or a walk around the center of Alleghe. The vacation has officially begun!
Second day
Lagazuoi: between history and endless views
After breakfast, transfer to Falzarego Pass and trekking excursion on the Lagazuoi Group, in the heart of the Dolomites. Climb along the trail to the historic Lagazuoi Tunnel, dug during the Great War. The tunnel ends upstream near the Lagazuoi secondary summit, from where we can already see the Lagazuoi Refuge. The terrace is famous for its incredible view of the Dolomite peaks, so much so that it is mentioned among the most spectacular viewpoints by the most prestigious mountain and tourism magazines. Before enjoying lunch, we recommend a short walk to the top of Lagazuoi. For the return trip, we can choose to descend on foot with the guide or by panoramic cable car. Return to the hotel for some relaxation, then dinner with a barbecue in the woods.
Third day
Under the Civetta and night in a refuge at Cima Coldai
Trekking on the northern slope of the Civetta Group. Ascent by cable car from Alleghe to Piani di Pezzè and scenic walk to Col dei Baldi with a 360° view of Monte Pelmo. After a short break, we continue on to the Coldai Refuge , where we will arrive around lunchtime. In the afternoon, for those who wish, it is possible to climb to Cima Coldai: from the summit, you can enjoy a privileged view. For everyone else, relaxation in the refuge. It is here that theWOW experience of this tour: a night in the refuge! A traditional dinner and incredible views will make this group vacation, followed by an overnight stay in one of the most beautiful mountain huts in the Dolomites.
Fourth day
Crossing the Civetta
Waking up at the Coldai Refuge will be an unforgettable experience! We begin our crossing of Civetta, passing at the foot of the "wall of walls," 5 km wide and up to 1,200 meters high. Today's hike takes us near Lake Coldai, a beautiful alpine lake. We arrive near the Col Reàn pass and begin the steep climb to the top of the hill itself: from here, there is a breathtaking view of Lake Alleghe is breathtaking! A short break at the Tissi Refuge and we set off again to cross this massif of the Dolomites. The trail now becomes flatter. Stop for lunch. And then down a comfortable mule track to Capanna Trieste and return to Alleghe with transfer included in the package.
Fifth day
Day off
We say goodbye to those returning home after this intense first part of the week. Those who are continuing the adventure today deserve a day off! As a suggestion, we recommend a walk to Lake Alleghe, an easy circular route that can be combined with a visit to the Serrai di Sottoguda, the spectacular Dolomite canyon. For the more active: the Marmolada, Queen of the Dolomites. From Malga Ciapela, three cable cars take you up to Punta Rocca, opposite Punta Penia, the highest peak in the Dolomites. Alternatively, from Arabba you can reach the Pordoi Pass and take the cable car to Sass Pordoi, a natural balcony overlooking the Sella Group, with the possibility of hiking to Piz Boè.
Sixth day (optional)
Croda da Lago Loop
After breakfast, transfer by car to the Passo Giau for a splendid circular hike around the Croda da Lago, in the heart of the Dolomites, which allows us to cross a series of very different environments. From the initial fir forest, we cross the lunar landscapes of Val de Formin: here, our gaze wanders upwards, towards the magnificent peaks of Croda and the rocky ground below, where we often see agile chamois scampering about. We pass through the prairies of Mondeval, a Mesolithic archaeological site, climb up to Forcella Ambrizzola and descend to Lake Fedèra and the Palmieri Refuge, a stop on theAlta Via n.1, the most famous trekking route in the Dolomites. From the refuge, we set off again for the initial fir forest and complete the circular route. Return to the hotel for some relaxation and dinner together.
Seventh day (optional)
Pale di San Martino: grand finale
The last stop on our week in the Dolomites takes us to the heart of the Pale di San Martino, within the Paneveggio Natural Park, one of the most elegant and luminous settings in the Dolomites. From the splendid Val Venegia , we begin our hike through pastures, woods, and panoramic views. The trail climbs gently, alternating between green stretches and hairpin bends among rocks and gravel, until it reaches the Volpi al Mulaz Refuge. For those who wish, there is the option of climbing the nearby peak of Mulaz, recognizable by its characteristic bell. After a well-deserved lunch break, we return to the cars along the same route, with one of the most iconic landscapes of the Dolomites in our eyes. Relaxation at the hotel and a final dinner to celebrate this fantastic holiday in the Dolomites!
Eighth day (optional)
The last day of our trekking tour has arrived: an intense week among the peaks of Lagazuoi, the majesty of Civetta, and the luminous elegance of Pale di San Martino. We walked through history and nature, crossed very different environments, slept in mountain huts, shared views, fatigue, and smiles. We chose to travel together, sharing transportation and reducing our environmental impact: a vacation that combines discovery, relationships, and care for the mountains that host us. Because the Dolomites are to be experienced, but above all, respected. Some chose the entire week and others only part of this journey: whatever your choice, thank you for sharing the journey with us!
