> Panoramic views of the Marmarole and Monte Antelao
> Extra night at scenic Rifugio Chiggiato, away from the crowds
> Crafted for trekkers who want more time in the wild Dolomites
There’s something magical about watching the sunset over the Marmarole from the terrace of Rifugio Chiggiato. That golden alpine glow, a steaming plate of polenta, and the sense of having truly escaped the crowd. It’s the kind of moment that makes your legs forgive the climb.
The 4-day Alta Via della Marmotta adds a night to the popular 3-day version—same distance, but with a slower rhythm and an extra night in the wild. This is for hikers who want the Dolomites without the Dolomites circus. You’ll move through rugged terrain and quiet valleys, spending each night in cozy mountain huts where the food is local and the views are ridiculous. The route is challenging but never extreme. Just enough spice to earn your strudel.
You start in San Vito di Cadore and end in Auronzo di Cadore. And along the way? Wild marmots, jagged peaks, and the kind of solitude you didn’t think existed in Italy.
You’ll receive access to our trekking app, which serves as your complete digital travel guide for the Alta Via della Marmotta. Inside, you’ll find everything you need for your trek: route descriptions, hiking maps, navigation support, payment information, and all the key details specific to your journey.
During your Alta Via della Marmotta, you will spend your nights in mountain huts. In the mountain huts we normally only book dormitories, but we can look into private rooms on request. If the private rooms are fully booked or not available in the hut, we automatically book a bed in dormitories for you. Please note that private rooms are more expensive and there will be an additional charge for this.
Accommodation at the huts includes dinner and breakfast. We will arrange this for you as well. This allows you to travel lighter and have one less thing to worry about. Bear in mind that lunch is not included, but it can be purchased at the huts. Here you can also buy an array of snacks and bottled water.
Our trekking app also includes built-in navigation support. With GPS-based maps and offline access, you can follow the trail confidently and stay on route even without mobile signal.
You have to make your own way to the starting point. The total amount does not include personal transport.
Should you need any form of (public) transport on location, this is not part of the trekking package. This includes the use of taxi, bus, cable cars, gondolas, ferries, etc.
Half-board is included in the price of this trek. Lunch, however, is not. You can get something to eat at the mountain huts along the way.
Your international travel insurance is your own responsibility. Discuss your itinerary with the insurance company before your trek.
Personal expenses on such as souvenirs, drinks, and other similar expenses are for your own account.
Before and after the Alta Via della Marmotta, you have to take care of your own accommodation.
