Dolomites - Low / Medium Level Walks

7/10/14 Day Walking Holidays based in Val Gardena

The jagged summits of the Dolomites are arguably the most beautiful of the Alpine range

with spectacular colours in the sunshine and a rosy glow intensifying to a vivid red at sunset.

Each day you will have a choice of walks from gentle walks through meadows and forests

to magnificent high mountain trails affording superb panoramas of spectacular mountains.

This trip will appeal to walkers of all ages as you follow woodland trails, lowland and upland meadows, riverside paths, passing sleepy hamlets, with spectacular towering massifs.

We offer a variety of walks from gentle strolls to more physically demanding treks into rocky mountain areas and you will see the most enchanting alpine landscape with lush meadows covered by numerous species of wildflowers surrounding picturesque tyrolean villages.

The region is a photographers delight that abounds with birds and wildlife and a diverse range of fauna; although you may not always be fortunate enough to spot golden eagles, sightings of buzzards, wild deer, chamois and marmots are common on many low and medium level walks.

The easy pace of this holiday makes it one of our most popular trips to the Dolomites and offers a relaxing way to enjoy the South Tyrolean contryside and view its majestic peaks. It provides spectacular alpine colours in spring and summer and you can also enjoy superb views of snow-capped peaks during the winter as a 7 day trip.

This holiday is truly spectacular in the summer providing mixed grade mountain walking in a superb location that will appeal to walkers of varying experience and fitness levels.
