Dolomites high alpine routes 3 & 4
The high route 3 connecting the Dolomites Alps to Valle del Piave across famous peaks as the Three Peaks, Crystal and Pelmo. It starts from Niederdorf and follow the path which is called the "Way of chamois." The hike is not too demanding but promises unparalleled views and landscapes.
From Niederdorf reach Misurina, Passo Tre Croci and then the refuge Vandelli in about 5 hours. From the refuge Vandelli can be reached then the refuge Tondi, Zuèl and San Vito di Cadore, this path undertakes about 7 hours.
Remember that the high street avoids Cortina d'Ampezzo you can see it from above, and that between Zuèl and San Vito is advisable to take a bus, rather than walking on the highway, always very busy.
From San Vito we head towards the refuge Venice in about 4-5 hours. From the refuge is possible to climb above Pelmo, the climb, however, requires a good workout.
In seven hours, from the refuge Venice, can be reached Passo Cibiana and refuge Remauro. From here you can enjoy a magnificent landscape on Alta Piave Valley, the Boite Valley, Zoldo Valley and Austrian Alps.
The last stretch leads us from the Remauro to the refuge Casera Bosconero and finally to Longarone in about 6 hours of walking. In this last section passes on gravelly gullies equipped with metal strings.
