A proposito di questo titolo
Stephen and Richard Ross from Big Trail Adventures walked the Alta Via 1 in mid-September, one of Europe’s most celebrated high routes across the Dolomites.
In this episode, we cover:
What the Alta Via 1 actually is — and why it’s known as a “high route”
How hard it really is, day to day
Planning late versus booking far in advance
What it’s like staying in Italian mountain refuges (food, showers, dorms, sleep)
How busy the trail felt — and when it suddenly didn’t
Carrying light: why 5kg made the experience better
Managing long, hot days with big climbs
Swimming in lakes and rivers to reset mid-route
Who you meet on the trail — from first-timers to seasoned alpinists
How the Alta Via compares to more familiar Alpine routes
Whether this trip changed how they think about future European trails
This is an honest conversation about walking in the Dolomites — what surprised them, what worked, and what they’d do differently next time.
