  • This Alpe di Siusi guided hiking tour is a six-day hut-to-hut journey through one of the most beautiful and varied corners of the Dolomites. We walk across Europe’s largest high-altitude plateau, into dramatic limestone groups and quieter alpine valleys, combining classic scenery with less-traveled trails. Nights are spent in welcoming rifugi and hand-picked hotels, and days unfold at a comfortable pace with a local guide sharing insight into the land, culture, and mountain life. Just a perfectly balanced mix of scenery, culture, and genuine alpine immersion.

    • We arrive independently in Val Gardena (Gröden), set high in the heart of the Dolomites, and check into our hotel. This alpine valley is known for skiing, climbing, and a long tradition of woodcarving, as well as its unique blend of Italian, Austrian, and Ladin cultures, reflected in the trilingual signage throughout the region. In the afternoon, we meet with a local Dolomite Mountains representative for a trip briefing, orientation, and maps for our self-guided adventure. Depending on arrival time, there may be an opportunity to explore the surroundings or enjoy a short walk nearby.

    • We begin the day by taking the Alpe di Siusi cable car to the trailhead and set out across the vast Sciliar Plateau. The route leads through alpine meadows and past summer farms before reaching Rifugio Malga Saltner. From here, we tackle a sustained climb via a series of zigzags toward our mountain refuge, rewarded with sweeping views of the Sciliar Massif and surrounding peaks. Lunch awaits at the rifugio, making the effort well worth it.

As you gain elevation, it will get colder. For every 1,000m you climb, the temperature will drop for 6.5°C (3.6°F for every 1,000 feet). What may be a 27°C (80°F) day in Alta Badia could be 15°C (60°F) on one of the summits during the day, and 0°C (30s°F) in the evening. 

        • Long hiking pants
