Itinerary
-
Walk the Dolorama, a gentle multi-day trail through the Dolomites that links alpine meadows, pine woods and rocky passes with daily stages of moderate length. The route stays on forest and gravel paths, crossing only one paved road, and offers frequent rest stops at sites such as the prehistoric settlement at Astmoos on the Lüsner Alm and the geological exposures at Würzjoch. Suitable for first-time hut hikers and families with a basic fitness level; some days are longer but never technical.
-
Arrive in Bressanone by train or private transfer and settle into your first night's accommodation. If you reach town early, wander the coloured lanes of this historic Tyrolean city and, time permitting, visit the frescoed rooms of the Bishop's Palace before dinner.
