Self-Guided Dolomites Hut to Hut Runcations!
Year Round (Summer/Fall)
We now offer self-guided trail running tours in the Dolomites on the Alta Via 1! Take the famous alta vias, or ‘high routes’ of the incredible Italian Dolomites in the northeastern corner of Italy. The Italian Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009, have been described by the explorer Reinhold Messner as “the most beautiful mountains in the world.” On this self-guided hut-to-hut runcation, or trail running/hiking adventure, you’ll discover some of the most beautiful trails and unique mountain huts in the world at your own pace. We’ll take care of all the logistics of baggage transport, mountain hut reservations, and provide you with a detailed itinerary and gpx mapping files to follow the route at your own pace and discretion. Along the way, you’ll end your days on the trail at scenic mountain huts, or rifugios, which offer warm lodges, scenic vistas, and fresh Italian cuisine and beverages. Our hut-to-hut adventure ensures that we'll be waking up and falling asleep to spectacular mountain sunrises and sunsets.
