thru-hiking in the dolomites of northern italy across the alta via 1
A Northern Italian one-way thru-hike in the Dolomites mountain range on the Alta Via 1 trail, heading North to South. Total distance covered was 65 miles over 10 days, and elevation gains/losses were marginal at 25,109 ft (7,653 m) gained and 28,590 ft (8,714 m) respectively.
This trek had some of the best food I have ever eaten on a thru-hike.
