Overview
What to expect.
The Alta Via 1 runs north to south through the heart of the Dolomites, linking high meadows, limestone towers and some of the friendliest huts in the Alps. Italian food and a glass of local wine at the end of each stage come as standard.
We walk the most scenic seven stages from Lago di Braies to the Civetta. Days are five to seven hours with good paths, and a few short cabled sections that your guide helps you through.
