This trek keeps you moving through dramatic snowy peaks and valleys when traditional hiking trails disappear beneath snow.

You'll move steadily across open slopes and through forests, experiencing the region's raw winter character without winter climbing skills or mountaineering experience.

  • Navigate Dolomites peaks under winter snow cover
  • Five-hour sustained trek through wintry alpine landscape
  • No climbing experience or technical skills required
  • Dramatic seasonal views of iconic peaks

What to expect

You'll spend five hours walking steadily uphill and downhill on snowshoes with your guide. The pace is moderate—not a race, but continuous movement through quiet winter terrain. Expect to work harder than summer walking because of the altitude, cold, and snow conditions. You'll climb to exposed ridges or traverse slopes depending on that day's conditions and snow stability. The guide handles route decisions and leads the group, so you focus on your footwork and endurance. Weather changes quickly; layers and proper preparation matter.

Good to know

Snowshoe and trekking pole rental available separately upon request. Not suitable for those with spinal injuries, pregnancy, or cardiovascular issues. Suitable for varying fitness levels, but winter altitude and sustained effort demand reasonable aerobic capacity. Bring warm waterproof layers and sturdy boots.
