Dolomites Alta Via 1 North

  • Walk the Alta Via 1 North, an iconic Italian Dolomites mountain trail with well-marked trails
  • Picture-postcard alpine scenery— lush pastures, dramatic peaks and dense forests
  • Enjoy a cold beer on the terrace as a golden sunset bathes the landscape
  • Stay in in a combination of comfortable hotels and traditional mountain huts (rifugios)
  • Feel a sense of achievement after completing the northern section, next year try the south!
The northern section of the Alta Via 1 trail offers some of the most breathtaking views in all of Europe. As you make your way through the rugged terrain and past towering peaks, you'll feel a sense of awe and wonder at the natural world around you. But it's not just about the views – there are plenty of cultural and historical highlights along this route as well. From the fascinating open-air museum at Galleria Lagazuoi to the cozy huts and comfortable hotels where you can rest and refuel, each stop on this trek has its own unique charm. And let's not forget about the delicious local cuisine! Hearty dinners are included on the nights in the rifugios and there are plenty of restaurant choices when you stay in the towns of Cortina, St Vigil and Alleghe. After a challenging and fun day of walking try typical Tyrolean meatballs. Delicious!
