The trail climbs gently and steadily through a beautiful forest. Little by little, we get our first glimpse of what awaits us in the coming days: the views open up first to the Cortina Valley, then to the Aveyrau region, before reaching the Cinque Torri (Five Towers) site. Here, we can explore a genuine World War I fortress, rich in remains and evidence of the fierce fighting between the Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies. We continue our hike to the Valparola Pass, where our first mountain refuge is located. We'll have our first taste of the Dolomites' cuisine, a blend of Italian and Austrian influences for a truly unique experience!

Fantastic 6-day trek in an incredible setting, well-organized and a friendly guide, with quality mountain huts most nights. The only downside: the packed lunches were small and unappetizing.

An exceptional place that must be earned; every glance etches images into your memory. A true reconnection with nature, it's a shame that tourists forget to pick up their litter along the paths.

I absolutely loved my trip to the Dolomites! Our guide, Eduardo, was exceptional: passionate and highly knowledgeable, he shared his passion for the mountains and his extensive knowledge of the region, making each stage of the journey even more enriching. The proposed route was magnificent, with breathtaking scenery and a good balance between more relaxed moments and slightly more challenging sections. Personally, I didn't find the hike particularly difficult, but I understand that it could be a real challenge for someone who isn't a regular hiker. I'm also very satisfied with the service I received throughout the trip: the organization, accommodations, and logistics were impeccable. This experience truly allowed me to connect with nature and fully appreciate the beauty of the Dolomites. I highly recommend this trip to all hiking and mountain lovers!

It was a fantastic trip! Our first adventure, but the experience was amazing. Great guide, stunning scenery. The mountain huts were great except for the last one, which had no drinking water, showers were pay-to-shower, and only one out of four showers worked. We'd do it again!
