Gillian Price’s Cicerone guide to Walking in the Dolomites is an extensive survey of some of the best walking opportunities in one of the most picturesque mountain settings of Italy. The Dolomites offer breathtaking alpine scenery among mountains flanked by well-graded paths & excellent mountain refuges that often venture on hotels, such is their quality. The region is easily accessible by means of a comprehensive network of public transport from major towns & travel hubs such as Venice, Verona, Munich & Innsbruck. The guide is organized into 28 walks through the Dolomites, using the most of the author’s extensive experience of the region in describing a highly original selection of itineraries. Many walks follow mule-tracks constructed by troops during the First World War, when Italy fought Austria for possession of crazy summits, & tunnels were hewn through impossible mountain-sides. The guide features everything from a stroll in the woods & meadows to family routes, steep rocky zigzag passages & hands-on clambers. Detailed route descriptions are accompanied by colour line drawings mapping the route as well as colour photographs illustrating some of the picturesque highlights of one of Italy’s most attractive walking countries ...
