Overview

Holiday Highlights

  • Enjoy arguably the world’s most picturesque mountains listed as a UNESCO world heritage site.
  • Discover the Forcella Nuvolau (2416m) and Falzarego (2105m) mountain passes.
  • Explore the exceptional network of footpaths in the Dolomites.
  • Marvel at the ‘enrosadira’ effect or alpen glow at dawn and sunset.

Ask a child to draw the mountains and unknowingly they will draw the Dolomites. These spikey mountains remain unequalled anywhere else in the world. Huge vertical walls of stone, pine forests, cascades and icy rivers, as well as rock tunnels formed in WW1 - all are accessible via a good network of paths.

The Dolomites will appeal to energetic mountain walkers and nature lovers, with vast expanses of flower-filled alpine meadows in late June through to July, and pockets of flowers in August through to September when the snow melts. If you are lucky you will hear and see marmots, chamois mountain goat-antelope, and overhead, kites, buzzards and golden eagles.

The variety of terrain and mountain scenery, along with the diversity of flora and fauna add up to a great walking holiday.
