The Dolomites Alta Via 1 (AV1) is a high level walking route, traversing the unique Dolomites mountain chain from North to South through steep, jagged limestone peaks towering over conifer forests and green valleys.
In addition to spectacular scenery and excellent hiking trails, the Dolomites are steeped in WW1 history and classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is easy to understand why the Alta Via 1 has become one of the most sought after treks in the Alps.
Our Alta Via 1 walking holidays are perfectly tailored to walkers and avoid via Ferratas where technical equipment is needed.

Experience! Alpine Treks has run hiking trips in the Dolomites since 2007. Our itineraries are well-proven and our logistics are top-class, whether you choose one of our guided or self-guided itineraries.
Our Alta Via 1 trek start and finish in Cortina! Known as the "The Pearl of the Dolomites", Cortina is a chic, historic mountain town with a plethora of cafe’s, restaurants and shops and is worth a visit in it’s own right. It would be a shame not to spend time in this wonderful place and soak up the atmosphere before and after your trek.
Bag transfers are included! We have included bag transfers to our overnight destinations wherever possible on our guided trips (optional on self-guided trips), which means that you can hike with a light pack and focus on enjoying the trip.
Our Guides are second to none! It’s a big claim, but one that our many happy customers are happy to confirm. Our guides are certified, full-time professionals with extensive experience on the Alta Via in the Dolomites. They happen to be extremely friendly, patient and helpful too!
Small, personal groups! We never have more than 8 people in our groups per guide. This makes it a more personal experience where we can look after individual’s needs.
Great value! We’re a small company with minimal overheads, so the money you spend on a trip goes towards providing an excellent service.
No hidden cost! We are completely open about what is included in your trip. No surprises with us!
Chose your preferred dates! In addition to our scheduled trips, we can arrange a private departure for you at any time that suits you.

"Dolomites paradise! This is a fantastic and fun company that I would definitely use again in the future! "
