From Verona: Full-day Dolomites Mountains trip

This full-day excursion from Verona is a great way to explore the majestic scenery of the Dolomites, one of the most fascinating mountain areas in Italy. Designed for those who want to enjoy a different kind of day among nature, viewpoints and alpine villages, the experience allows you to explore this region in comfort and without worrying about the organisation of the journey.

The departure is from the centre of Verona, from where a panoramic itinerary begins towards the heart of the mountains. Along the way, the landscape changes little by little to give way to valleys, forests and imposing peaks. Throughout the morning there is a brief stop for coffee, as well as a stop by Soraga Lake, a perfect spot for contemplating the surroundings and taking photos.

The route also passes through villages such as Moena and Cavalese, charming mountain villages that perfectly reflect the alpine atmosphere of the region. Their streets, traditional houses and shops selling local products add a very special touch to the route, making the excursion combine great scenery with the attraction of small villages full of personality.

One of the highlights of the day is the arrival at Passo Pordoi, one of the great natural viewpoints of the area. Situated at an altitude of 2,239 metres, it offers extraordinary views over some of the most famous mountains in the Dolomites, such as the Marmolada, the Sella and the Catinaccio. Here you will have free time to relax, have lunch or simply enjoy the scenery. Optionally, you can also take the cable car up to about 2,950 metres for an even more spectacular view.

In the afternoon, the excursion continues to Ortisei, one of the most emblematic villages of the region. Its elegant atmosphere, wooden buildings and craft shops make it a very pleasant stop for a leisurely stroll and to soak up the character of the Dolomites before heading back to Verona.
