Which Dolomites walking holiday should I choose?

Inntravel has four very different Dolomite walking holiday options:

A Stroll in the Italian Dolomites offers relaxing walking close to the breathtaking Seiser Alm plateau.

The Dolomites’ Three Peaks is a demanding but rewarding hike that takes in the iconic Tre Cime.

Secret Dolomites starts in the mountains to the south and promises a sense of journey as you head north.

The High Dolomites explores both meadows and landmark peaks.

You can combine the latter two to make a thrilling 12-night adventure – perhaps the ultimate hiking holiday in Italy!

How are walking holidays in the Italian Alps graded?

As you'd expect, walking in the Dolomites and other parts of the Italian Alps offers a range of holidays. Certain routes are suitable for different fitness levels and abilities. Some are more demanding, allowing you to challenge yourself. Others are less intensive.

The most challenging hikes involve several days of trekking. You'll cross more difficult terrain with many climbs and descents. Gentler walking holidays based in Val Gardena help you explore the area's UNESCO-listed peaks in a more relaxed way. You can ride cable cars, gondolas, and funiculars to make the journey easier. To help you choose the holiday that's right for you, we grade them (see the definitions below).
  • These gentle strolls range typically between 5-10km per day and involve few ascents or descents. Go at your own pace, pause at every opportunity, and take it all in.
  • You don't have to be a seasoned hiker to enjoy these walks, but someone who's happy to take on around 5-15km each day – with the occasional hill thrown in.
  • Expect to cover approximately 10-15km a day, across varied terrain with regular ascents and descents. You'll be challenged in places – but enjoy superb views.
  • Where rugged terrain goes hand in hand with the satisfaction of reaching a peak or high pass. Typically, days range between 7-20km and involve significant ascent and descent.
  • Our most thrilling walks involve full days on the trails, more challenging terrain, and testing ascents and descents, but there's still time to appreciate your surroundings.
  • Our flexible walking holidays give you a choice of routes each day, some of which are easier than others, so you can select the one that’s right for you on the day. This flexibility also makes these holidays perfect for anyone who is unsure of their level, or for groups of friends or family who want to enjoy a walking holiday together, but who may not all be at the same fitness level.
