Departure from Auronzo di Cadore (Belluno)
A major tourist attraction... definitely worth a visit!!!
But now you have to remember to book your parking space in advance (30 euros) and, if you don't get a space in the upper car park and you're not a keen walker, it's 10 euros per person for the bus.
It's a steep climb! There's a short, fairly strenuous section for about 15 minutes near the end of the climb to the refuge. You can take a 10-minute shortcut along the road to avoid having to go back up if you're tired.
The problem is that once you get to the top, you're a bit too tired to go around the "Tre Cime". It is possible to push on to another viewpoint towards the more rugged mountains opposite.
Also worth noting: take 50p and £1 coins for the toilets.

Difficult
Departure from Cortina d'Ampezzo (Belluno)
A spectacular journey into the heart of the Dolomites. This superb hike takes you to the turquoise waters of Mac de Sorapiss. The main effort is on the outward leg, with a 600-metre climb. The rest of the route is accessible, although the return path (via trail 216) features several vertiginous sections, equipped with metal steps and safety cables. Extra caution is required on these exposed sections, but the view is well worth the effort. A true classic that leaves no one indifferent!
