2017 Euro-Adventure Stop 2 – Val Gardena, Italy

November 14, 2017 by Amiee

I had been staring at photos of the Val Gardena area for the past year, so to be there felt absolutely surreal. My first two trips to the Dolomites centered around exploring Cortina, Alta Badia, and Tre Cime de Laverado, but HOLY WOW, who knew the real jewel was Val Gardena?!? Day 1 Val Gardena…

2017 Euro-Adventure Stop 1 – San Cassiano, Italy

November 7, 2017 by Amiee

Our 2017 Dolomiti adventure got off to a grand start. We arrived in Venice and beelined it straight to Dolomiti only slightly heartbroken that we didn’t end up with a Fiat 500 at the car rental counter. Starving, we stopped at an Autogrill off the Autostrada where I bit into a focaccia and immediately broke a…

Hiking Italy’s Lagazuoi Tunnels

August 30, 2015 by Amiee

I hate being underground. Technically the Lagazuoi Tunnels are not underground, but under mountain. Regardless I was not stoked to explore trails not under the light of day. But I had to do it for history’s sake! Lagzuoi is a peak in the Dolomites with an altitude of 9,201 feet (2,835 meters) well known for…

Holy Dolomiti! A Crash Course in Hiking the Dolomites

August 28, 2015 by Amiee

I wasted no time getting to the Dolomites! I arrived in Venice at 5pm, jumped in the rental car and headed north on the Autostrada in a tiny Fiat (first time driving in a foreign country – eek!) arriving in Cortina just in time to watch the full moon rise over the mountains. Then up…
