Moderate and challenging walks in the heart of the Western Dolomites

Val di Fassa lies between Marmolada (10,968ft/3,343m), the highest peak in the Dolomites, and Catinaccio (9,728ft/2,965m), a long ridge that glows red in the rising sun. Based in the lovely village of Campitello, we are ideally situated to access neighbouring valleys and discover their attractive villages. We walk along jagged limestone spires towering above and through lush green valleys carpeted with alpine flowers. With excellent chairlift, cable car and bus links, we can access a huge variety of routes, allowing us to offer two levels of walking on each trip: Activity Level 3 (Moderate) and 5 (Challenging).

Itinerary

Campitello Campitello

We start in Campitello, a pretty Dolomite village chosen for its ease of access to the nearby hiking trails. In the evening, the leaders will hold a welcome meeting to discuss the week ahead and give advice on the area.

Meals included: Dinner

Our day combines high-altitude routes that capture picture-perfect Dolomite scenery with lower-level trails down to the Val di Fassa. The early season should ensure we see a wide variety of alpine flowers. We begin our journey by taking a cable car towards Col Rodella and then walk along the southern flank of Sasso Lungo/Sasso Piatto to Rifugio Sasso Piatto. There will be an opportunity for an optional walk as far as viewpoint Palacia. We retrace our steps to the refuge for lunch before we descend via Rifugio Micheluzzi to Campitello.

Distance: 9mi (15km); ascent: 984ft (300m); descent: 3,609ft (1,100m); maximum altitude: 7,874ft (2,400m)
