Using this guide

The 50 walks in this guide have been selected for their suitability for a wide range of holidaymakers. There is something for everyone, from leisurely family strolls to strenuous climbs to panoramic peaks for experienced walkers. Each walk has been designed to fit into a single day. This means carrying a small rucksack and being able to return to comfortable hotel accommodation at day’s end. That said, many walks become even more enjoyable if stretched out over two days, with an overnight stay in a rifugio (see Accommodation). For more ambitious walkers, 25 multiple-day walks can be found in the Cicerone guide Walking in the Dolomites, while Trekking in the Dolomites: Alta Via routes has six amazing long-distance routes.
