Where You'll Stay

Nights are spent in carefully selected three-star hotels, each offering a warm welcome and comfortable rooms with private bathrooms. The accommodation is well-chosen to reflect the character of the Dolomites, providing a genuine and restful base after each day on the trail.


What You'll Eat

Six breakfasts are included throughout the walk. Lunches are purchased at mountain refuges along the way, an authentic part of the alpine experience well worth embracing. Dinners are not included and can be taken at your accommodation or at local restaurants in town. 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.

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.
