About Dolomites Self-Guided Hiking Tours

The Dolomites are an alpine mountain range and cover an area of 16,000 square kilometers in northeastern Italy. Its alpine valleys, slopes, and mountain pastures are dotted with marked trails, with their sum total being somewhere around 1200 km, thus making this mountain range the ideal destination for walking holidays — for experienced hikers and leisure travelers alike.

We name every colossal rock sculpture that aims for the sky a mountain, yet each has its unique identity. And the Dolomites are living proof of it. The distinctive limestone towers and steep rock faces are symbolic of the landscape, attracting many tourists to set their eyes upon them at least once in their lifetime.

The lands below these mountain peaks are even more diverse and just as scenic. Lush meadows, alpine lakes, and glacial valleys that wind between the mountains offer a welcome respite from the urbanized society. There are no large cities in the Dolomites, only charming towns and villages that preserved their tradition, making a visit to these locations an incredibly authentic experience.

There are numerous shepherd cottages along hiking trails, and, in accordance with tradition, dairy farms are not a rare occurrence either. Truly a paradise for every outdoor enthusiast who enjoys the little things.

1) Stunningly beautiful places with perfect weather! Good balance of countryside and old city walking. 2) The Trip App was incredible!!! 5 stars! Loved the write ups on each location. The links to all restaurants, hotels, attractions, tickets! The GPS app also worked. 3) PERFECTLY located hotels and rooms with two beds and thoughtful staff! Loved being right in the old towns with amazing views. I did not mind carrying bags up or down in order to have the locations but much appreciated when we did have help with this 4) Breakfast being included with the rooms (even though there was a mix up the first morning). I don't like to have to plan breakfast spots and the buffets were incredible. 5) The kindness and promptness of the drivers, Nice transport vehicles and easy drop off and pick up points. Plus help with our bags. 6) The Walking Holidays Croatia team was helpful and easy to work with. We appreciate all they did to customize out trip.

Tour was very well organised with lots of information to help guide us through the holiday. All the accommodation was great. Particularly liked the self catering Glamping Mountain Fairytale and the Berghi Hotel. Food at the Hotel Starkl restaurant was great as well. The route took us through a beautiful part of the country on quiet roads and cycle paths. The cycle paths are much better than in the UK and I would also like to say that Slovenian car drivers are much more patient and tolerant than many drivers in the UK. Beautiful country. Really enjoyed it.

Walking in the Bernese Oberland felt like a dream. The trails were incredibly scenic, with views of snow-capped peaks, turquoise lakes, and picturesque Swiss villages. The accommodations were comfortable and ideally located, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. Lan was wonderful in helping me plan my days and ensuring I had everything I needed. Switzerland’s natural beauty is unmatched, and this trip was the perfect way to experience it on foot.

Walking the GR10 was an incredible way to experience the Pyrenees. Each day brought something different—lush valleys, high mountain passes, and charming villages. The huts provided a warm bed, great meals, and a chance to meet fellow hikers. The clear itinerary and support from Hut to Hut Hiking Europe made it easy to focus on enjoying the trail. I’d recommend this hike to anyone looking for a multi-day trek with lots of variety.

My walking holiday in Chamonix and the French Alps was unforgettable. Each day brought stunning views of towering peaks, alpine meadows, and glacial streams. The routes were well-marked and varied in difficulty, making it easy to tailor the days to my pace. The accommodations were charming and perfectly situated for breathtaking morning views. Lan was so helpful in suggesting how to make the most of my time in the region, and their support made the whole trip seamless. If you love mountains and fresh air, this trip is a must!
