The Beautiful Italian Alps
Tour Full
Starting in Verona, this fabulous walking tour in the Dolomites takes you through some of the most beautiful mountains in the world. Our journey follows winding trails that have criss-crossed the Dolomite Mountains linking hamlets and villages for centuries.
The Dolomites are a unique range of mountains: towering limestone pinnacles and spires, which rise dramatically above deep green valleys of pine forests and rolling meadows scattered with villages, Gothic churches and isolated timber farmhouses. It is a beguiling blend of German and Italian cultures.
