We love the Dolomites so much that we have developed this "Alta Via" tour (our fourth different itinerary!) to indulge our passion for the region. This is a special experience because we stay up in the mountains for four nights in isolated mountain chalets known as “rifugios” where you will have private double rooms with proper beds, pillows, hot showers, excellent food and a decent wine list while staying up high, in the crisp, clean, quiet air of the mountains, far from the valley floor. These chalets are not meant to be luxury hotels but our travelers always remark that they were more comfortable than they had expected (and for us, watching the sunset from the peace and quiet of a mountain hut is the definition of luxury!). A bag transfer from the last rifugio means you only hike two days carrying what you need for the overnight stays.

We ease you into the mountains with two nights in lovely Ortisei before taking you to hike the "Alta Via," or “Dolomites High Route.” You’ll hike some of Europe’s most spectacular Alpine scenery and stay in two of the Dolomites most charming mountain huts. This tour provides you with a real Himalayan-style trekking adventure but with comfortable lodgings and superb Italian food and wine at the end of the day. It’s a winning combination!

Dolomites Alta Via Hiking Tour Includes

  • Accommodation: 7 nights accommodation ( 2 nights in Ortisei at a four-star Hartmann Romantic Hotel or the Hotel Rainell or similar, 4 nights in comfortable rifugios [mountain chalets], 1 night at the four-star Hotel Acadia in Selva Val Gardena)

  • Luggage: Bags are transferred from Bolzano on day one, with drop off Bolzano on the final day. Bag transfer from final rifugio to the transfer van so you only have to carry a day pack on the final day of hiking.

Toilets and showers are in the hallway (it's a great way to meet people!).

Dolomites “Alta Via” Hiking Tour itinerary Request full itinerary

Day 1

Independent arrival in Bolzano. Nestled amongst vineyards and orchards at the edge of the Dolomites it is the thriving capital of the South Tyrol region. It is also home to “Ötzi”, the 5,300-year-old mummified “ice man” whose body was found in the nearby mountains two decades ago. His body and related artifacts are on display in a fascinating archaeological museum that should not be missed. If you want to3 stay in Bolzano the night before the pick-up day let us know and we will book you a room (choices range from convenient and comfortable three-star hotels to the luxurious Hotel Park Laurin). Meet your guide(s) today at 5 p.m. at the Hotel Laurin for a 50-minute transfer to the charming alpine village of Ortisei where we check into the four-star Hartmann Romantic Hotel or Hotel Rainell (or similar). Dinner in the village. Overnight Ortisei Hotel, transfer, and dinner included.

Day 2

Rise and enjoy a hearty Tyrolean breakfast before departing on foot to take a funivia up the north side of the Val Gardena. Today we hike below the dramatic southern face of the Odle massif, and enjoy expansive views across the valley to the Alpe di Siusi, whose jagged rock towers seem to pierce the sky. We arrive at a rifugio (mountain hut) for a perfectly-timed snack break before taking on a challenging 550 m/1,700 ft climb to a 2,500 m/8,000 ft pass. From here the views are truly vast as you take in several of the Dolomites most dramatic ranges. The charming all-wood Stevia hut welcomes us for a well-deserved lunch of fresh pasta or the ubiquitous and delicious barley soup. More spectacular views await us after lunch before our gradual descent towards the village of Selva di Val Gardena. The worst of the descent is avoided with a van pick-up which takes us back to our hotel in Ortisei. We will be back in time to enjoy a gelato in the village square or a sauna at the hotel spa. Overnight Ortisei. Details: Total distance: about 14 kms/8.5 miles. Uphill 700m/2,250ft and downhill 450 m/1440ft. Hiking time: 5h. Maximum altitude: 2500m/8000 ft. Summary: Moderate hiking to start then a challenging steep climb to the pass. Very good trails. A full day of hiking.  Hotel, breakfast, lift ticket, and dinner included.

Day 3

Your big adventure starts today as we embark on the “Alta Via” (high route) component of the tour where we stay four nights up in mountain chalets known as “Rifugi”. You will have proper beds, pillows, hot showers, excellent food and a decent wine list while staying up high, in the crisp, clean, quiet air of the mountains. We start this day with a 5-minute private van transfer to a funivia lift which whisks us 800 meters up to the start of our hike. We hike along the northern wall of the Odle massif. As we hike, we take in vast views out over the Val di Funes and onto the spiky peaks of the Odler group which tower above us. Lunch is enjoyed at 2000 meters at the Rifugio Odle where you can sit back, relax and take in the scenery. After a warning lunch of homemade barley soup, we set out again on a sensational trail that takes us beneath the imposing spires of the Furcheta to our final destination, the rifugio Genova. This charming chalet was constructed in 1898. It sits at 2300 metres at the entrance to the Puez-Odle national park. Toast the day’s hike with a cold beer, followed by a hot shower then dinner in the charming wood-paneled “stube.” Overnight in private double room (late sign ups may have to share a triple or quadruple room). Hot shower and WC are down the hall. Details: Total distance: about 18 kms/11 miles. Uphill 750m/2,400ft and downhill 450 m/1440ft. Hiking time: 5h30m. Maximum altitude: 2425m/7760 ft. Summary: Moderate hiking, very good trails, but a long day. Bags: You leave your main luggage at the Ortisei hotel to be retrieved on Day 7. You carry your overnight stuff for 4 nights in your backpack. Basically, you just need 1 change of socks, underwear and base layer because we spend two nights in each rifugio, you can do a hand wash and the garments can dry over 36 hours. Breakfast, dinner and rifugio accommodation included.

Day 4

As the sun’s rays reflect off  Putia peak we head east on a 13.5 km (8.5 mile) hike around the mountain. The trail features magnificent views from above the tree line before gently descending into the soft embrace of the larch woods. The trail follows the valley of the mills, and we see ancient wooden aqueducts that fed water from the mountains to the water mills below. Lunch is had at a log mountain hut, the Utia di Goma. We are once again above the tree line and we have a gradual climb that takes us up over the Putia Forcella (strong hikers have the option of hiking up Putia peak, two hours out and back) and back home to Rifugio Genova where we enjoy a relaxing drink in the deck-chairs overlooking the valley. Hiking time: 5h. Maximum altitude: 2415 metres/8768 ft. Summary: Total climb of 950 meters/ 3000 feet.  Easy hiking on good trails, one 2 km section on 4X4 road plus optional challenging climb. This hike is very pleasant because it stays up high as it loops around the flanks of Putia mountain. We never drop below 1950 meters/6,000 feet. Breakfast, dinner and rifugio accommodation included.

Day 5

Today’s hike is made up of dramatic alpine terrain as we strike into the heart of the Odle-Puez national park. The trail eventually gets squeezed between several peaks as we climb to the Nives pass. A short section of trail requires you to climb ladders and rungs that are bolted into the rock. There is no exposure, so if you can climb a ladder, you can do this. However, if you are not happy with the sounds of this, there is an alternative path that you can take which makes the day much easier and reduces the whole tour to a level 4 rather than a level 5 Activity Level. We crest at 2740 metres/8768 ft. Energetic hikers can take an optional out and back trail to the top of Piz Duelda peak, which tops out at 2,909 metres/9,308 ft. The views are impressive as we gradually descend to the welcoming embrace of Puez Hutte for lunch, which is nestled in amongst the surrounding peaks at 2475 metres/7920 ft. A large, sunny terrace welcomes us where you can kick back and take in the quiet solitude of these gorgeous mountains. After lunch we have a two-and-a-half-hour hike to Gardenacia hut. This rifugio was built in 1937 and renovated in 2009. Happily, the owners kept many of the original features and furniture to retain an old-world charm. The Gardenacia rifugio has an additional special feature; a sauna with large one-way windows that look out over a stunning alpine view. What a great way to relax at the end of an epic day of hiking! Indeed, this is an extremely comfortable rifugio where we are delighted to stay for two nights. Overnight in private double rooms (late sign ups may have to share a triple or quadruple). The shower and WC are down the hall but we also offer you a free Sauna so you can use the modern shower facility in the Sauna area. Hiking distance: about 16 kms/10 miles. Uphill 1000 m/3,200ft and downhill 800m/2500 ft. Hiking time: 6.5 hrs. Maximum altitude: 2740 metres/8768 ft. Summary: Challenging hiking, good trails but with some assisted climbing to be done during the ascent to Nives Pass (option to avoid this trail is available). That means climbing up ladders and steel rungs. Today is the most challengin day of hiking, thanks to a long 600 metre/1900 ft continuous climb. Breakfast, dinner and rifugio accommodation with sauna facilities included.

Day 6

We have a variety of options on offer for today’s hike to suit the weather and your energy levels. All of them feature spectacular views and isolated trails, so it all depends on how much you want to do. Past hikers have been seduced by the rifugio's lovely terrace and fabulous sauna so we have offered a morning hike followed by a free afternoon to relax and enjoy the amenities. However, if you still have energy to burn you can embark upon an epic hike that features the imposing vastness of the Gardenacia plateau, a dramatic descent to undulating pastures, lunch in charming La Villa village, and finally a chairlift back into the mountains with a final 40-minute climb back up to the rifugio. Details: Total distance: choices range between 8 km/5 mi - 17 km/11 mi. Hiking time: 3 - 6hrs. Good trails throughout.  Breakfast, dinner and rifugio accommodation with sauna facilities included.

Day 7

We set out this morning for our final Alta Via hike. We quickly enter a dramatic landscape as we ascend towards the Para Dai Giai to hike along a high ridge line at 2450 meters/8000 ft. Our last hour of hiking takes us along the southern side of a group of mountains making up the Crespeina massif. As we slowly descend, we will see climbers on the Piz da Cir whose vertical pitches have enticed local climbers for over a century. We end our hike at the Danterceipe “hut” which is a super modern structure of steel and glass with fabulous views from its excellent restaurant where we have lunch. After lunch, we happily cheat by taking the gondola down the last 600 m/1,900 ft to Selva val Gardena where a private transfer takes us to Bolzano and the lovely four-star Hotel Park Laurin (or similar) in the center of historic Bolzano. We splash out tonight with a our four-star boutique hotel overlooking Selva Val Gardena. Overnight Selva Val Gardena. Details: Total distance: about 15 kms/8 miles. Uphill 1100m/3,500 ft and downhill 750 m/2460 ft. Hiking time: 4.5h. Maximum altitude: 2525 metres/8300 ft. Summary: Another full-on hike with a challenging 500 meter/1600 ft continuous climb at the beginning of the day, then a second sustained climb of 500 meters to the Crespiena fork. Good trails throughout but with a little scree for about 15 minutes towards Forc. Di Sassonher.  Hotel, breakfast, lift ticket, van transfer, dinner included.

Day 8

After breakfast departure for Bolzano train station by private van transfer. We will arrive at the train station in time for 10:30 train departures.  Bolzano is well connected by train to Verona, Milan, Venice, Innsbruck and beyond. For private groups we can also arrange final transfer to Venice (airport or train station, both of which are about a 2.5-hour drive). Breakfast and transfer included.

Please note: Some details of the itinerary may change according to the departure date of your tour. Whenever we run a tour we make new discoveries. Sometimes they are good discoveries, like a wonderful new trattoria, and sometimes they are bad, like a trail has been washed away. The result is that we sometimes change our itinerary to improve it by adding new wonderful elements to the tour or by removing something that does not work anymore. Rest assured, our goal is to always provide you with the best possible experience. We will advise you of any changes to the original itinerary prior to departure.  

The Hikes in the Dolomites

The hikes in the Dolomites are the most challenging that we offer. The paths are good, but you require good footing and should be used to hiking on steep, rugged terrain. This tour is not appropriate for people who suffer from vertigo or who have bad knees or hips. The terrain is frequently steep and we sometimes have long ascents and descents. Some days require 6 hours of hiking. Daily distance between 14-18 km/8-12 miles.

Backpacks and Bag Transfers

Backpacks: On these trips you will be carrying more in your backpacks than on other tours because: a) we are in the mountains so you need to carry more layers and be ready for any weather conditions; b) you may need to carry more water since it may not be readily available; and c) you will have to carry 1 change of clothing and your toothbrush for the overnights in the rifugio. We stay two nights in each rifugio, which means that you can do an easy hand wash of 1 pair socks, underwear and T-shirt and it will have time to dry. Or just wear non smelly merino! On the final hike we organize a bag transfer from the rifugio, therefore of 6 days of hiking you carry just your day-pack on 4 days. Here is how it looks day by day.

Day 2: First hike is a loop Hike. You just carry what you need for the day.
Day 3: Hike to Rifugio No. 1. You carry your overnight stuff for 4 nights in your backpack. You leave your main luggage in the Ortisei hotel to be picked up at the end of the hiking tour.
Day 4: Loop Hike. Overnight again in Rifugio No. 1. During the hike you just carry what you need for the day.
Day 5: Hike to Rifugio No. 2. You carry your overnight stuff in your backpack to Rifugio No 2.
Day 6 Loop Hike. Overnight in Rifugio No. 2. During the hike you just carry what you need for the day.
Day 7 Hike. During the hike you just carry what you need for the day. We will arrange for a bag transfer from the rifugio to our transfer van, so you do not have to carry your overnight stuff on the last day of hiking. Your main luggage will be waiting for you when you arrive at out hotel in Selva Val Gardena.

 

 

Activity Level 4.5 or 5 out of 5= Rewarding or Challenging:
In general: This is a challenging tour for fit hikers who will feel satisfied and a bit tired by the end of the day; it is NOT appropriate for novice hikers or even for experienced but unfit hikers. Day 4 is the most challenging day, which makes the tour a 5 rating, but we offer an easier option which reduces the overall rating to a 4-difficulty level.
Terrain: Rolling and often steep terrain. Challenging sustained climbs and descents of up to 1,200 m (4,000 ft). Altitude can play a role as our Challenging tours are in the mountains. On the Dolomites "Alta Via" tour we sleep at 2,700 m (8,500 ft).
Actual hiking time: 5 - 7 hours per day
Distances: Usually 15 - 18 km (9.5 - 11 mi). Max distance is 22 km (14 mi).
Surfaces: Trails are a mix of compact earth or dirt track, gravel roads, and rocky, uneven trails. You will find scree slopes and steep switchback trails, and at times you may have to use your arms to climb up a short “impasse,” or sit down on your bum to descend sections that are too big for a step. You might also find somewhat overgrown trails. 
Footing: Good to tricky. You must almost ALWAYS pay attention to where and how you place your feet. Proper hiking shoes or boots with thick soles with good treads are required. Sport sandals, running shoes and tennis shoes are not adequate.
Specifics: The trails are safe, but some of them have some “open” parts which could unsettle anyone who suffers from vertigo (on the other hand, all you have to do is look the other way!). Most of the trails are well maintained, but occasionally you have to hike on a short stretch of scree. You also have to carry what you need for three nights up in the mountain huts, so your day-pack will be a little heavier than usual.  Elevation gains are between 600 - 900 m (1,970 - 3,000 ft).
Hiking Poles: REQUIRED! If you don’t bring your poles the guide will hit you over the head with their own poles. 
Compared to the Cinque Terre: Significantly more difficult than the Cinque Terre because the distances are much longer and the terrain and footing much more difficult. If you enjoyed the hikes in the Cinque Terre but wanted more at the end of the day and you regularly hike and backpack, then these 5-rated tours are right up your alley.  
Other: These tours are not appropriate for first-time hikers. People with hip and knee issues will probably find that the hikes aggravate their pre-existing injuries to the point that they may have to abandon the tour. Hikers need to be fit and have healthy joints, and easily be able to hike for six hours a day. You should also be used to negotiating rocky, uneven terrain. 
Backpacks: On these trips you will be carrying more in your backpacks than on other tours because: a) we are in the mountains so you need to carry more layers and be ready for any weather conditions; b) you may need to carry more water since it may not be available; c) you may be carrying your lunch; and d) in some cases you may have to carry an extra change of clothing, as in our Dolomites "Alta Via" Hike you stay up in the mountains where luggage transfers are not possible.  
Challenging Tours: Dolomites "Alta Via," Republic of Georgia – Tusheti National Park
As a point of reference, what is a 1 out 5 Activity rating? A 1 out of 5 rated tour is a tour without any hiking. Hikes would be in towns, cities, and villages, and the countryside hikes would be on paved, or gravel/dirt roads, and occasionally on some packed earth trails. Elevation gain and loss would be negligible.
As a point of reference, what is a 5 out 5 Activity rating? A 5 out of 5 rated tour is a tour that would be physically challenging and technically difficult even for very fit and experienced hikers. The hikes would have steep ascents and descents on narrow, exposed trails with challenging footing, such as on scree fields, or through rock falls and boulders. Distances would be up to 25 km/16 miles per day and feature ascents of over 1,000 m/3,200 feet in a day. A 5 out of 5 tour would also mean that you would be carrying a heavier-than-normal pack. None of our tours are rated 5 out 5. Our most challenging tours are 4.5 out of 5, and they are the Dolomites Alta Via (because of some exposed trail that requires some technical expertise) and our Republic of Georgia tour which has some long hikes with over 1,000 meters of elevation gain.

Getting There: the trip starts in Bolzano, which is easily reached by train from various Italian cities. The closest airports are Innsbruck, Verona, Milan, and Venice. Travel time by train to Bolzano:  from Innsbruck 2 hrs, direct; from Verona 1.5 - 2 hrs, direct; from Milan 2.5 - 3 hrs, with one change; from Venice (Mestre) 2.5 - 3.5, most with one change; from Florence: 3 - 3.5 hrs, some direct high-speed trains; from Rome 4.5 - 5, some direct high-speed trains.

Air: The most convenient airports to the trip are Innsbruck, Verona, Milan, and Venice. For a complete list of Itlian airports and a selection of low-cost airlines, see our "Transport Info" page.

Rail:  See the Trenitalia website (in English) at this link. For alternative high-speed rail travel, see the Italo website. For complete information on using the Italian train system, see our blog post

Getting Away at the End of the Trip: After breakfast on Sunday, we provide a 1hr private transfer to the train station in Bolazano, arriving in time for 10:30 a.m. trains. From there you can get trains to Venice (takes 2-3 hrs, depending on departure), Milan (2.5 hrs), Verona (1 hour), Innsbruck (2.5 - 3.5 hrs), Florence (3.5 hours), or other cities.

We got to spend 8 days with Brett and Dennis on the Alta Via and it was great. We had a wonderful blend of through hikes and loops which allowed us to balance how much pack weight we carried and great accommodations throughout. Everything was wonderfully organized to give us a mix of hiking terrain, but always surrounded by great views.

Had a peak experience tour of the Dolomites with Customwalks. The scenery was stunning, the guides were very knowledgeable, fun, and were always there to help. This was on our bucket list and it certainly exceeded our expectations. We'll be back for sure. Great company to work with, would use them again.

The Dolomites Alta Via tour was visually stunning and athletically challenging, like no other and I have hiked many places in the world. Brett and Dennis were also world class guides, with intimate knowledge of the area, food, conditions and their audience. They are also fun and funny. Looking forward to my next Custom Walks tour.

I met Brett 20yrs ago when my then teenage sons and i did a hike in the Dolomites with him. In the intervening years, i've gone on two more trips with Customwalks. I do many trips without a guide. When i choose a guided adventure, I want not only a great guide(s) but also great companionship. With this return to the Dolomites using an alta via route, my family/friends wanted to have Brett as our guide, and were also delighted to meet Dennis. The eight of us made perfect companions. The weather had played havoc with some of the trails but our guides confidently directed us. They even managed to make the rains hold off until the evenings when we were comfortably at our rifugi! I hope good health and the luxury of time allow us to make multiple more trips together. For those trips we will look first to Customwalks....the best boutique guide service around!!

The Dolomites Grand Traverse captures the best of the dolomites. There are amazing views every day. The food is the best of the region. There's nothing like sitting outside of a Rifugio, eating a wonderful meal, and enjoying that day's dolomite vista.

This hiking tour was absolutely fantastic in every way. My wife and I have been hiking for forty years in many different places in the world and of course in the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest where we live. However we were blown away by the beauty and uniqueness of the Dolomites. Every day the trails chosen showed different landscapes including beautiful mountain formations, rolling green valleys and various alpine features.This made every hike great in its own way. The lodging in the hotels and rifugi exceeded our expectations with beautiful settings, comfortable sleeping arrangements and INCREDIBLE food. Dennis our guide was terrific . He was very knowledgeable of the trails and surroundings, friendly and engaging , and worked hard to ensure that every day's activities ran smoothly and worry free for us. We cannot say enough good things about him and this tour. Lastly, Brett the owner of Customwalks is a pleasure to work with and it was obvious from the start that he wanted this to be as good an experience for us his customers as possible. The other people on this tour were just as delighted with it as we were. We hope to do more tours with this truly excellent company.

Just finished a wonderful two weeks in Italy highlighted by our Customwalks tour of the Dolomites. This tour was perfect from start to finish. The information we received prior to the trip had us well prepared for anything we would encounter during the hikes. Our guide - Dennis - was outstanding and made everything run smoothly throughout the whole trip. He would preview the next day’s activities every night at dinner and answer any questions anyone had about the upcoming segment of the tour. He kept the pace enjoyable and doable for each of us. He was very knowledgeable about the local history, culture, area and the food. He was perfectly fluent in English which made things much easier for all of us. By the end of the trip we felt like he was “part of the family”. The hikes were well planned out and we never went over the same areas twice. The accommodations were all great - from the four star hotels to the refuggios - and the food was outstanding everywhere we went. Most importantly - the scenery was spectacular the entire trip. Every day provided new and different vistas in every direction. We would definitely come back to the Dolomites and will definitely hike with Customwalks again.

My second year in a row hiking the amazing Italian Dolomites ( and luckily for me with the same guide !) The scenery was spectacular and our trip itinerary was very carefully organized and thought out to maximize the beauty, the ups and downs, and some trail variety and the best Refugio's and one amazing sauna !!!I totally felt in the best hands with our guide who truly watched out for us. And you could also tell the guide vicariously enjoyed our enjoyment of the mountains and shared the excitement with the the views and the food and travels together. He was very special and unique and had a great sense of humor and spoke English fluently.I highly recommend this trip. It was a little tough for me being an older person and hiking with significantly younger people ( i.e. my 31 and 28-year-old sons who are in incredible shape). 10 miles a day - six days in a row - was certainly a challenge; but well worth it.

Wining and dining in the Dolomites... and working up an appetite! This was an intense hike. My body took a bit of a beating, but I was smiling the whole time as my eyes took in the amazing Dolomiti. The itinerary was thoughtfully designed to give us the best experience and give us exposure to a variety of landscapes, refugi, and terrain. Amazing trip. Terrific guide. Wonderful memories.
