Description

Join me in the Alps this summer and take a 6-day trek around the Zoldo Dolomites! These mountains have as much beauty as cultural intrigue, and I will place you front and center in this picture perfect adventure.

The Dolomites are part of the Southern Limestone Alps and named after the Dolomite rock itself. Located in northern Italy, their historical significance has granted the mountain range UNESCO World Heritage Site status.

During World War I, they served as the battleground for the Austrians and Italians. The via ferrata networks established a century ago have since been restored and are a huge attraction for climbers.

For hikers and adventure-seekers in general, the region offers charming mountain backdrops that will make your trek even more unforgettable. You will find alpine meadows and diverse forests snuggled into the valleys as you head from rifugio to rifugio.

Our journey is a circular trail that will take us around Val di Zoldo, set at the foot of Civetta, Mezzodi, and other remarkable Dolomites. Starting out from Zoldo, we will spend roughly four to seven hours trekking on each of the ¨laps¨ before settling into rifugios in the evening.

Our itinerary gives us the opportunity to make it to the top of the mountains through various paths, all easily accesible and well maintained.

This is an intermediate trek, so you should be in good physical shape.

When you are preparing for this program, you should take the weather into consideration and pack for each possible situation.

Book this program and spend six days trekking through the beauty of history of the Dolomites!

Mountain Leader

AGAI Mountain Leader (Accompagnatore di media montagna) from Veneto.
I was born in the heart of the Dolomites, between Pelmo and Civetta, the love for the mountains was inevitable for me.
Ski slopes and snow in winter, walk through my home mountains in summer. So I decided to turn my passions into a choice of life.

The qualification of Mountain Leader and Snowbord Instructor allowed me to realize a dream: to live and work in my mountains.

I wait for you for hiking and trekking in the Dolomites, to share the magic of the nature together!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
