The Tre Cime di Lavaredo, meaning 'Three Peaks of Lavaredo' in Italian, are three distinctive battlement-like peaks in the Sexten Dolomites of northeastern Italy. They are probably one of the best-known mountain groups in the Alps. Our 9 day tour is a point-to-point trail running circuit linking many of the highlights including this spectacular 11km Tre Cime loop. Over a spectacular week of trail running, starting and finishing in pretty Cortina d’Ampezzo, you will run along high mountain trails through alpine pastures, forests and elevated passes with views to some of the most famous pinnacles and spires of the Dolomites. We travel lightweight each day between our boutique mountain hotels & Refugios, all with the freedom of luggage transfers.
Over the duration of our tour you will have access to our expert guides and coaches who always strive to facilitate an environment of education and learning for all elements of trail running. We are eager to share our knowledge on gear, equipment, nutrition, wilderness safety and conservation, adventure or race planning, local environmental and cultural significance and running techniques tips and tricks that will have you dancing, thriving and keeping safe on the trails. You will also have the option of massage and physiotherapy services from our expert senior guide (additional cost).
Please note, of our two Italian Dolomites Tours, this one is the least demanding. However, this is a moderate to advanced tour so trail and hill fitness is essential.
