Carbon Neutral Trip
Italy’s Dolomites: outrageously scenic, slightly mysterious, and suspiciously crowd-free (shhh). Wander lush Alpe di Siusi’s larch forests, eye-popping meadows and trails beneath Sassolungo’s iconic peaks. Explore Alta Badia’s valleys, meet locals who proudly cling to Ladin traditions, and refuel with hearty alpine meals. Luxurious spas soothe tired legs—because even intrepid hikers deserve a little pampering.
Experience the awe-inspiring beauty of the Dolomites' jagged peaks, dramatic rock formations, and picturesque alpine landscapes, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for their natural significance and stunning beauty.
Unwind and rejuvenate in the Dolomites' tranquil environment, where a day of hiking is rewarded with a well-earned massage and exceptional regional cuisine.
Immerse yourself in the unique culture and traditions of the Dolomites' mountain communities, with charming alpine villages, historic churches, and fascinating museums that showcase the region's rich history, folklore, and culinary heritage.
Preview the itinerary
No two trips are ever the same, but this will give you a taste of what your journey will be like.
Day 1
Our Dolomites adventure begins with a serene lakeside stroll and a forested trail beneath the Sciliar massif. Hike across sweeping wildflower fields then refuel with a hearty mountain hut lunch before relaxing back at the hotel. Tonight, savour a sunset dinner overlooking the peaks.
Activity:
Morning hike | 7 km (4 mi.) | Elevation gain: 102 m (334 ft.)
Afternoon hike | 3 km (2 mi.)
Day 2
Start the day with a scenic chairlift ride into the high alpine and hike past grazing alongside sweeping views of the Sassolungo and Sassopiatto peaks. After a relaxed lunch at a local mountain hut, return to the Alpina Dolomites for an evening of alpine comfort and an incredible meal.
Activity:
Morning hike | 9 km (5 mi.) | Elevation gain: 200 m (656 ft.)
Afternoon hike | 7 km (4 mi.) | Elevation loss: 195 m (640 ft.)
Optional hike | 5 km (3 mi.)
Day 3
Today offers two ways to explore the alpine magic of the Dolomites. Choose a scenic loop with sweeping views and local legends—or challenge yourself with a longer ridge hike to two historic mountain huts, complete with cappuccinos and panoramic lunches. Whichever path you take, the day ends with a surprise dinner in an unforgettable alpine setting.

Morning hike | 9 km (6 mi.) | Elevation gain: 620 m (2,035 ft.)
Afternoon hike | 13 km (8 mi.) | Elevation loss: 590 m (1,935 ft.)
Day 4
Today’s journey traces a dramatic transition from the sweeping alpine meadows of Alpe di Siusi to the rugged beauty of Alta Badia. Hike through forests, past soaring cliffs and panoramic valleys, pausing for lunch at a legendary rifugio before continuing to the heart of Ladin country.

Morning hike | 8 km (5 mi.) | Elevation gain: 325 m (1,070 ft.)
Afternoon hike | 9 km (6 mi.)
Optional hike | 8 km (5 mi.) | Elevation gain: 65m (214 ft.)
Day 5
Venture from forested trails to sweeping alpine meadows, where a warm welcome and farm-fresh lunch awaits at a family-run Ladin baita, with views stretching to the Marmolada Glacier. Cap off the day with a celebratory feast at one of the valley’s oldest farms.
Activity:
Morning hike | 14 km (9 mi.) | Elevation gain: 500 m (1,650 ft.)
