WHY THIS HIKE

The caves of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo

The Tre Cime di Lavaredo are a true icon of the Dolomites, a hike to do at least once in a lifetime. Access to this fantastic place is limited, and the route we will take starts directly from the Auronzo refuge, avoiding the initial elevation gain. A particularly spectacular spot for taking photos is represented by the caves above the Refuge. Looking up, you will see them clearly. The path that leads up is quite steep, but if you are passionate about photography, you absolutely cannot miss them! After this stop, we will continue on the path. The most challenging part is the ascent from the bottom: a steep section on stones which, under the sun, can be tiring, so it is important to tackle it calmly and well hydrated. A truly fascinating aspect of this section is the possibility of encountering marmots: their characteristic call will resonate in the air, and if you are careful, you will see them running a few steps from you! An excursion that offers breathtaking views and encounters with the wild nature of the Dolomites.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Alessandro, I'm 35 and I live in the heart of the Dolomites, in Cadore. I'm a mid-mountain leader with the Collegio Guide Alpine del Veneto and a UIMLA member, with a degree in Sport Science, an MTB guide and — yes — a sommelier too: after a hike, a good glass is never out of place. 🍷 I live the mountains in every form they come in: trekking, trail running, mountain bike adventures. Moving in nature is pure energy for me, discovery, feeling, and sharing it is the part of the job I never tire of. Panoramic ridge or woodland singletrack, the goal is the same: a real, active day that puts you back together. See you in the mountains, Guidders!
