Winter Walking in the Dolomites

Organised winter walking with Collett's

We offer several organised winter walks during the week. These are free of charge and optional. Pedraces Badia is an ideal base for walkers, offering excellent 'from-the-door' access to many delightful winter trails and a good range of different itineraries to suit individual preferences. Corvara is also an excellent base for walkers who can follow the river as far as Pedraces or walk under the dramatic north flanks of the Sella. Or they can wander up the road to the Col Alt telecabines, which will whisk them up to the Pralongia Plateau where they can enjoy more walks and or snowshoeing itineraries.

Self guided winter walking

Ultimately, you do exactly as you please, we are available to help, but careful not to interfere. If you prefer to organise your days and winter walks independently, we will leave you to your own devices. Itinerary ideas and information are always at hand at Office Hour from our walk organisers and in our chalets ~ These describe several magnificent local winter walking & snowshoeing itineraries.

'Young, jagged and imposing, the Dolomites are perhaps the most striking mountains in Europe. Although they are a stunning location for summer hiking, they are at their most sublime in winter. Stepping into a pair of snowshoes might feel strange at first, but it will allow you to walk to parts of this snowbound wonderland that are normally reserved for mountaineers and extreme skiers.'
