• 1 night in tents (tent, sleeping bag and sleeping mat included)
• 2 dinners included
• Experienced English-speaking rangers on site for support

During the hike, you’ll regularly pass a hut where you can grab something to eat or drink. Breakfast is always included at the huts where you stay overnight, and dinner is included at one of the two huts.

On the night you stay in a tent at the campsite, you can have dinner at the campsite restaurant or grab something from its food truck. There’s also a small shop selling basic breakfast supplies.

On the evening when dinner isn’t included at the hut, you can choose your meal from the hut’s menu. (Please note: this isn’t included, so you’ll need to pay for it yourself after dinner.)

We recommend bringing enough food for the day. Pack plenty of snacks, such as nuts and dried fruit, to keep your energy levels up.

If you don’t want to eat lunch at a hut every day, or you’d simply like to spend a little less, you can also buy a food pack from us for €50. It includes a cooking set (small pot, gas burner and gas canister) and several freeze-dried meals (daily lunch, plus dinner and breakfast for the night at the campsite). Bring your own lighter and reusable cutlery or a long-handled spoon.

You’ll also need to bring your own water bottles. Make sure you can carry at least 2 to 3 litres of water. You can refill your bottles at the huts, sometimes for a fee.

For The Dolomiti Trail, the first day of hiking is the start date of your booking. For example, if you book from 1 to 6 September, you’ll head straight out on 1 September for the day hike to Lago di Sorapis.

If you’d rather set off well rested, you can optionally book an extra night in Misurina before the start through us. Please note that availability is limited, and your start date will still show as 1 September in the Travelbase app. You’ll see the extra hotel night before the first day listed among your selected options.

We arrange accommodation with plenty of character. You’ll spend a week in the mountains, staying in charming mountain huts, a cozy hotel along the trail, and one night camping at a campsite. We provide the tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping mat. All locations have sanitary facilities.

• 1 night in a cozy little hotel (shared room) by the lake, including breakfast and dinner
• 2 nights in huts along the trail (dormitory), including breakfast (you must use a sleeping bag liner in the huts, which you can also rent from us)
• 1 night in a tent at a campsite along the trail (tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping mat included)

At the hotel at the start of the week, you can choose between a bed in a shared room with other participants or a private double room.

In the mountain huts, you’ll sleep in dorms or mattress rooms. These are shared sleeping areas with several bunk beds or mattresses. You’ll be sharing the space with other hikers. It’s a unique and quintessential part of life in a mountain hut, and the best way to experience the mountains up close. Private rooms are not available in the huts.

At the campsite, you’ll stay in your own tent.

You must bring your own sleeping bag liner. We also recommend bringing earplugs and/or a sleep mask to ensure a peaceful night in the hut.

The Dolomiti Trail is a self-guided trail. That means you’ll hike the entire route independently. We make sure you have everything you need to complete the trail successfully. Everything is arranged for you, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. All you need to do is hike and enjoy the experience.

• Our experienced rangers will give you a detailed briefing on the first day.
• After that, you’ll set off independently along the manageable, well-balanced route we’ve mapped out for you.
• Our handy trail app includes an overview of all the routes and important information for each day. In principle, this should allow you to complete the entire route independently.
• We’ll also arrange your accommodation in huts or campsites along the trail.
• Of course, our rangers are available to help whenever needed. You can contact them with any questions throughout the trip.

You’ll receive a packing list well in advance, with an overview of everything you’ll need.

The essentials are good ankle-supporting hiking boots (category A-B/B), a backpack (around 30–45 l), a sleeping bag liner and protective rainwear.

• Choose footwear that feels comfortable enough for a long trek.
• Be prepared for changing weather conditions. Good waterproof clothing is essential, and don’t forget to pack a few warm layers too. It can get particularly chilly in the evenings.
• In the huts, you’re required to bring your own sleeping bag liner. You can also rent one from us for €12.00 per person.

You can also rent hiking poles from us for €12.00 per person. Hiking poles are highly recommended on multi-day mountain treks, as they help take the strain off your joints and support your body.

Over the course of the week, you’ll walk just under 75 km. Daily stages range from 10 to 19 km, with one longer 22 km day. The itinerary is well paced, balancing the distance covered with the elevation gained. If you’re up for an extra challenge, you can book an additional night at the end of the week and add another 12 km to visit the Tre Cime di Lavaredo.

Unfortunately, dogs aren’t allowed in the huts where you’ll be staying. This, combined with the intensity of the trail, means you can’t bring your dog along.
