At the core of this adventure are the spectacular landscapes and unique natural features that define the Pale di San Martino. Notable highlights include the serene Laghi di Colbricon and the panoramic Cima Fradusta mountain peak.
The paths, weaving through diverse terrains, offer a blend of peaceful woodland trails and exhilarating rocky ascents. The journey between Rifugio Rosetta and Pradidali unfolds across the rugged Pale di San Martino plateau, where each step reveals a new facet of the Dolomites' beauty.

We had a lovely hike today with our guide Klemen. He personalized the tour on our needs and interests, so that we saw places we wouldn't without his experience. The hike was a little bit slippery after the rain from the last days and it went a lot upwards, but it was totally worth it! Thanks again :)


Well organized trip. The travel agents were extremely communicative, provided great service, and made adjustments as needed. The GPS app provided was another highlight. It worked exceptionally well made the trek much easier. The itinerary was thorough and included lots of extra details about the region as well as scaling options. The only drawbacks were that the company is based in Slovenia (doesn't seem to have a presence in South Tyrol), and the cost, which was higher than similar treks from competitors.
Our 3 day hike had to be rearranged 2/2 weather, so a one day hike was arranged for us. We appreciated the concern about weather and conditions. Our hike was with Matevz, who was a great guide. Very helpful and knowledgable. Would definitely recommend and will be back for a longer hike one day!
