The Italian Dolomites are truly a hiker's paradise. Thousands of trails
wind their way between the fantastic pinnacles of these jagged
mountains, which magically turn from pale grey to gold and pink at
dusk. We set our tour in the South Tyrol, unquestionably the finest
hiking in the Italian Alps.
Hike on the National Parks –
Fanes-Sennes-Braies, D’Ampezzo and the Val Badia Ladin valley crowned
by the Sella and Sassongher massif. Spend the nights in the Dolomite
huts, charming mountain inns that offer a welcoming and unique
atmosphere. Although they are called “rifugi” (
refuges), the mountain huts in the Dolomites are more comfortable than in the rest of the Alps, resembling little inns more than huts.

Molto Bene!
Great views, great places to stay, great food/drink and
even great weather.....you were able to accommodate a 15 month old as
well as the over 50 crowd. Lots of logistics for you to manage and it
was well done. We'll have great, fun memories of your beautiful
country and we'll be talking about this trip for a long time. Please
use me as a positive reference for your company any time.
