Where You'll Stay

Nights are spent in a range of charming three and four-star hotels, each chosen for their comfort and local character. All rooms are well-appointed and the warm hospitality of the region is felt throughout.

What You'll Eat

Six breakfasts and four three-course dinners featuring regional specialities are included throughout the walk. Dinners are not included during your time in Cortina, where the town's excellent restaurants are yours to explore independently. Lunches are purchased at mountain refuges along the way, which is very much part of the Dolomites experience. Please advise us of any food allergies or intolerances at the time of booking — if you have severe allergies, bringing some of your own snacks is recommended, as specialist ingredients can be harder to source in the mountains.

More About This Trip

The walk starts in the Niederdorf/Villabassa or Toblach/Dobbiaco area and finishes in the same region. The closest airports are Venice and Innsbruck, both with onward connections to the area. By train, services run from Innsbruck over the Brenner Pass to Franzensfeste, with connections into the Pustertal Valley. By road, take the A22 Brenner motorway to Brixen and follow the scenic SS49 through the Pustertal Valley.

At the end of the walk, both Dobbiaco and Villabassa have public transport connections to Bolzano, Venice and beyond for onward travel.


This walk is available from 13 June to 20 September, with start days on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Walking is not available from 27 July to 30 August inclusive. While it is possible to extend into late September, early snowfall and limited public transport outside the high season make this less practical.

Private transfers are available at additional cost for those wishing to walk outside the recommended window — contact our team to discuss. Groups of five or more have increased flexibility on start dates.

This is Stroll's most flexible Dolomites itinerary, with harder and easier walking options available each day, making it the ideal choice for first-time alpine hikers.

Graded moderate to challenging, daily distances average around 14km with up to 712m of ascent and descent. The trails are well-defined and varied, covering forest tracks, high alpine pastures, rocky mountain paths and mountain villages, with prolonged ascents and descents on rough terrain and steps throughout. Snow patches may be encountered on higher passes, so good mountain footwear is essential.

An active lifestyle and a training regime of three to four times per week is recommended. Mountain weather can change quickly — at least one member of your group should be comfortable navigating with a map. Comprehensive walk notes, maps and a navigation app are provided for each day.

Travel insurance is required for all Stroll walking holidays, covering cancellation costs, loss of luggage and injury. For international trips, your policy must also include medical evacuation coverage. A cancellation fee applies if you cancel after your holiday has been confirmed. See the FAQ section for full details.


A detailed information pack and itinerary will be sent to you around six weeks before departure, covering everything you need to know for a seamless experience. In the meantime, our team is always on hand to answer any questions.


For your safety and well-being, we are unable to accept bookings for solo walkers on this itinerary. The remote nature of some tracks and limited mobile reception mean that walking alone presents a higher risk in case of emergencies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your main luggage is transported between accommodations so you only carry a daypack on the trail each day. Bags must not exceed 20kg. Your luggage will be accessible at each property by the evening.

A 30–45 litre daypack with a hip belt and a waterproof cover is recommended. This is what you'll carry each day on the trail with your layers, rain gear, water, snacks, camera, and other essentials.

Yes. Most days offer a choice of distances or routes to suit how you're feeling. On the Dolomites of Cortina walk, for example, Day 2 can be walked as either 10km or 16km, and similar flexibility exists across most other days. Cable cars and public buses can also be used on certain days to skip sections, though tickets for these are generally not included in the trip price.

The Dolomites are spectacular but demanding. Some trails reach above 2,000 metres, with exposed sections equipped with handrails and cables. Trekking poles are strongly recommended — they make a real difference on steep and rocky ground. A solid base of fitness is important, and it's worth building in elevation training before you go, as the climbs use different muscles to flat walking. Snow is possible in the early season, and certain trails can be affected by water erosion, so always check conditions before heading out.

Italy uses the Euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted, including at most mountain refuges, but carry some cash too — smaller villages and local businesses often prefer it, and some public toilets charge a small fee. ATMs are available in towns along the route.

Yes. Comprehensive travel insurance is mandatory, and it must cover trekking above 2,500 metres and helicopter rescue. All medical services in Italy are chargeable — including emergency evacuation — and costs can be very high without adequate cover. Keep your policy number and your insurer's 24-hour emergency contact number with you at all times.

Let Stroll know of any allergies or dietary needs at the time of booking so your hotels can be informed in advance. If your requirements are particularly specific, it's worth bringing some of your own snacks as backup — ingredients can sometimes be harder to source in more remote mountain locations.
