WHY THIS HIKE

The Cima Carega loop

Dolomite spires a few kilometres from the plain.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from Rifugio Revolto and climb into the heart of the Piccole Dolomiti, through the wild country dividing the Lessinia from the Val d'Illasi. We pass Rifugio Pertica and Rifugio Fraccaroli, then take Cima Carega, the highest summit of the group. Here the altitude does not tell the whole story: spires, vertical walls and rocky crests create a surprisingly alpine landscape. The return closes the loop by Rifugio Scalorbi.

5 reasons to come - Cima Carega, the highest of the Piccole Dolomiti - three huts along the same loop - spires and vertical walls a step from the Veneto plain - the high pastures of the Lessinia - a complete loop that does not repeat itself

Who it suits A mountain route with rocky sections: good fitness and a sure step are needed.

The Dolomites in miniature, but real: come and find them with the Guidders.
