Welcome to Belluno
Perched on high bluffs above the Piave River and backed majestically by the snow-capped Dolomites, Belluno makes a scenic and strategic base to explore the surrounding mountains. The historical old town is its own attraction, mixing stunning views with Renaissance–era buildings. And you'll be happy to fuel up for hikes in the nearby mountains on the city's hearty cuisine, including Italy's most remarkable cheeses: Schiz (semi-soft cow's-milk cheese, usually fried in butter) and the flaky, butter-yellow Malga Bellunese.

Trekking the Dolomites - Alta Via 1
Our trekking starts from the Falzarego pass, at 2100 meters a.s.l. Sorrounded by the majestic faces of Tofane and Lagazuoi, we hike up through the meadows of Col Gallina to the Averau pass. The view we enjoy along the first stage is definitively the most spectacular and wide we have along this tour. In the afternoon we reach the top of Mount Nuvolau, 2575 meters a.sl., where it stands the oldest mountain hut of the Dolomites. (4 hours walking - height difference: 600 meters)During the second stage we first cross the Giau pass, and then the meadows of Mondeval, an incredible worthy natural area, famous for the numerous species of flowers. That is the geographical and geological heart of Dolomites World Herigae Site, still uncontaminated and without any big human infrastructure. We finally reach the Città di Fiume mountain hut, just in front of the north face of Mount Pelmo, one of the most spectacular mountain in the area (5 hours walking - height difference: 300 meters up - 800 meters down)Today we start to explore the mountain group of Civetta, topic area of the trekking. During the morning we cross the pastures of Coldai, where we can’t avoid to taste the traditional mountain cheese directly from a typical mountain farm. In the afternoon we continue along the Civetta valley and we reach the Tissi mountain hut. (6 hours walking - height difference: 800 meters up - 500 meters down)We walk away from the most famous and celebrated valleys and we start to explore the south area of Dolomites, the wildest and most uncontaminated area of the region. The sensation during the walking is that this area is dominated by the nature, and the men is only a small host. (6 hours walking - height difference: 600 meters up - 1000 meters down)We are going to the end of our trekking, but the surprises are not finished. Today we enter in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park. No ski resorts, no asphalt roads, no villages. After crossing the Moschesin pass we explore the Pramper valley, where it stands the enchanting and quiet Pramperet mountain hut. (5 hours walking - height difference: 400 meters up - 400 meters down)All the sixth day is dedicated to the heart of the National Park, the wild valleys of Van de Zità, strongly shaped by the glaciers during the last glaciations. We reach the Pian de Fontana mountain hut, our favourite refuge of the area, where we can enjoy the rest of the afternoon just relaxing, or making a short walking in the area. (4 hours walking - height difference: 600 meters up - 800 meters down)The last stage of our trekking is dedicated to Schiara mountain, the highest peak of the National Park with its 2545 meters a.s.l, the symbol of Belluno, the capital of the province. The trekking ends next to Cordevole river, in a place called La Stanga, that in local dialect means border. (5 hours walking - height difference: 500 meters up - 1500 meters down)
