The Experience
The Alta Via 1 is the perfect introduction to multi-day hiking in the Dolomites. From Lago di Braies to Belluno, you'll traverse some of the most photographed peaks in the Alps while sleeping in mountain huts that serve better food than most restaurants.\n\nThe via ferrata sections add excitement without requiring technical climbing skills - just clip in, trust your feet, and enjoy the exposure. The traverse below Lagazuoi on day 4 is particularly memorable, with WWI tunnels carved into the mountainside.\n\nRifugio life is its own reward. Expect hearty pasta, local wines, and conversations with hikers from around the world. Book ahead for the popular huts like Scotoni and Nuvolau.
