Walking in the Dolomites 25 Multi-day Routes in Italy's Dolomites

The Dolomites are one of the world's great mountain walking destinations. These extraordinary pale limestone towers, rising from the valleys of northeast Italy, form a UNESCO World Heritage Site of exceptional natural beauty, and the network of hut-to-hut routes threading between them offers some of the finest multi-day walking in Europe.

Ranging from 11 to 41km (7 to 25 miles) and taking 2 to 4 days to complete, the 25 mostly circular routes in this third edition Cicerone guidebook by Gillian Price span the full breadth of the Dolomites. Suitable for experienced hikers with a head for heights, routes range from moderate to challenging, with some traverses involving scrambling and exposure.

• 25 multi-day hut-to-hut routes covering the full breadth of the Dolomites, from the Tre Cime di Lavaredo and Cortina Dolomites to the Marmolada, Sella, Civetta, Pale di San Martino and Dolomiti di Brenta
• Iconic highlights include the Tre Cime tour, the Sella traverse, the Catinaccio loop, the Civetta tour and the Tofane-Lagazuoi circuit above Cortina d'Ampezzo, some of the most celebrated mountain walks in Italy
• Routes across UNESCO-listed mountain groups are also described, including the Puez-Odle altopiano, Sassolungo, Latemar and the remote Dolomiti Friulane, covering the full range of landscapes within the World Heritage Site
• 1:100,000 mapping provided for every route alongside detailed information on hut accommodation, public transport connections, access points and route difficulty
• Comprehensive practical guidance covering the best season to walk (mid-June to late September), accommodation in mountain rifugi, food and drink, equipment, waymarking and an Italian-English glossary

The Dolomites are at their most spectacular when explored over multiple days, moving from hut to hut through the high passes and rocky cols that connect each mountain group. Gillian Price, Cicerone's foremost Italy author, has crafted the definitive multi-day walking guidebook to one of Europe's most breathtaking mountain landscapes.
