I had been postponing my trip to Dolomites for years. Instead, I visited breathtaking mountains and national parks of New Zealand<\/a>, Canada<\/a> or Alaska<\/a><\/strong>. And yet the same beauty, if no bigger, can be literally found just behind the corner \u2013 in ITALY<\/strong><\/a>! Italian Dolomites took my breath away at their first glance and I can say without any further hesitation that it was love at first sight.<\/h4>\n

In this article I will provide you with my itinerary across Dolomites, information about the camping spots and a day trip to ferrata and my budget.<\/h4>\n

HIKES in THE DOLOMITES<\/strong><\/h2>\n

HIKE n. 1 SANTA MADDALENA<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of my highlights was a visit of a charming village Santa Maddalena<\/strong> and its surrounding. After you find a parking there (\u20ac4 per day), go and explore its short hiking trails with breathtaking viewpoints over the Dolomites.<\/p>\n

Then take a local bus to Zanser Alm cottage<\/strong> and start a breathtaking hike back to Santa Maddalena while visiting other mountains cottages surrounded by the Dolomites such as Malga Glatschalm or Gschnagenhardt Alm-Malga Casnago<\/strong>. I think the best pictures from the Dolomites were made at these places. As an addition, you can have your lunch or drinks at these cottages.<\/p>
