About this trip
The Alta Via 1 is the classic hut-to-hut route through the Dolomites, and this trip covers it in full over 10 days with a guide leading the way. You walk south from Lago di Braies to Belluno, sleeping in mountain rifugios along the route rather than carrying camping gear or planning logistics yourself.
Expect long days on foot through limestone peaks, high passes, and alpine meadows, with sections that pass through old World War I terrain. It's a serious walking holiday rather than a gentle ramble — the reward is being deep in some of the most striking mountain scenery in Europe, with peaks like Lagazuoi, Civetta, and Pelmo as your daily backdrop.
Nights are spent in traditional rifugios, sharing rooms and meals with the group and other trekkers, which is very much part of the experience — simple, sociable, and close to the mountains rather than removed from them.
