Hiking the Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites in Italy – Episode 811

Listen to about mountaineering the Alta By means of 1 in the Dolomites in northern Italy as the Amateur Traveler talks to Morgan Fielder from CraveThePlanet.com about a multi-day hike she has taken more than the moment.

Morgan claims, “My relationship with the area is that it is grow to be an once-a-year spouse and children pilgrimage. So each summer months, with the young ones and household pals from all more than the earth we meet there, and we do a five-day hut-to-hut hiking journey through the Dolomites on the Alta Via 1 path.”

Margan says the particular person who really should do this is “somebody that wishes to ignite surprise and just be in a location where the landscape is so magnificent. You forget vehicles even exist. But then, at the end of the night, you get a 3-program dinner served with nearby wines from an OMA cooking in a loved ones-run mountain lodge.”

The complete Alta By way of 1 is 75 miles (120 km), but Morgan has been undertaking a shorter 5-working day excursion so that “my young children will not despise me”. They shell out a working day in Cortina d’Ampezzo and then choose a bus up to Lago di Braies and then hike south to Cortina d’Ampezzo yet again.

Together the way, they end in a series of mountain “huts” or refuggios. These mountain lodges supply a very good to excellent food and a snug position to sleep, which enables them to hike devoid of tents and only with just one modify of apparel.

Morgan describes the a variety of refuggios, the hiking segments, and the landscape of this beautiful aspect of Italy. She tells us where we will come upon day hikers, when to go, and what the weather will be like. Along the way, we study a bit about WWI when this rugged terrain was the entrance line concerning Italy and Austria-Hungary.
