A guidebook to 25 multi-day treks in the Dolomites of north-east Italy. The routes range from moderate to challenging in difficulty, with varying degrees of mountain traverses, scrambles and exposure so a good head for heights is needed.
The treks range from 11 to 41km (7-25 miles) with daily distances of between 5 and 15km (3-9 miles). Each trek is designed to be hut-to-hut and last 2-4 days. The routes explore the major mountain groups of the UNESCO World Heritage site including Sella and Marmolada.
