Circular around Sassolungo

You’re on ‘the terrace of the Dolomites’. A stunning, surprising setting – I’ll let you discover it for yourself! An easy walk, popular with families. In good weather, there’s a 360° view. There’s a welcoming mountain hut/restaurant at either end of the walk. If you’re lucky, you might see people in wingsuits jumping and flying off the cliff at Sas de Pordoi

A superb hike in the Puez Geisler Odle Nature Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This route offers magnificent panoramic views at the foot of the Fermeda, Sass Rigais and Furchetta peaks. At Seceda, a promontory high above the void, you'll witness a spectacular alignment of these peaks, posing for you. At various other points on the loop, you'll enjoy marvellous panoramic views of the Langkofel, Schlern and Sella massifs.

This circuit on the eastern slope of the Sella massif is a very accessible loop hike with minimal elevation gain and no major technical difficulties. However, you do need to be in good physical shape. Geologically speaking, it's really cool because the hike passes through rock formations typical of the Dolomites and offers breathtaking views.

This hike in the Puez Odle Nature Park is truly enchanting. The wave-shaped summit of Seceda is known throughout the world and its viewpoint will delight your eyes. The rest of the hike offers different views of Val Gardena and the famous pink colour of its mountains.

Compatsch is the gateway to the Alpe di Siusi. This mountain pasture, the largest in Europe, offers a breathtaking view of the Dolomites in South Tyrol, Italy. The panorama in the foreground stretches from the Schlern massif, including Punta Santern, to the Langkofel Group, featuring the Langkofel and the Plattkofel. In the distance lie the Sella massif with Piz Boé, and the Geisler massif with Seceda and Saas Rigais. This circular route offers magnificent views of these ‘bellissime montagne delle Dolomiti’.

To the west of the Dolomites, just above the Isarco Valley, there is a rather surreal place. Imagine a plateau covering several thousand hectares, with undulating terrain between 1,800 and 2,400 metres above sea level, almost completely devoid of trees, and dotted with hundreds of alpine barns. And all this is surrounded by several Dolomite massifs rising to over 3,000 metres. Here you can give free rein to your wanderlust, and the suggested route is the one we took to discover the area.

During this circular walk around Monte Bullaccia, you’ll come across several vantage points where you can admire the beauty of the Val Gardena Dolomites and the neighbouring mountain ranges. An orientation board will help you identify the best-known peaks, including the Langkofel, the Schlern, the Piz Boe and the Saas Rigais. You are in the Italian South Tyrol, where place names are given in two or even three languages: Bullaccia in Italian, Puflatsch in German and Bulacia in Ladin (the local dialect).

If you don’t have time to do the full trek, give this hike a go.
