Minimum of 4 participants

Try to go as light as possible and take only the essentials.
Excess baggage can be a burden to you and to our support personnel. Due to space limitations in our transfer van, we ask that your limit your luggage to one piece per person. Duffel bags work best because they are more manageable and they fit in small nooks and crannies.

Consider the weather when you are packing. The summer months (mid-July through September) have warm temperatures and plenty of sun – perfect for hiking, climbing, via ferrata, and cycling trips! While temperatures may reach the 80s °F / 25°C on the valley floors during the day, the gentle wind of the Dolomites guarantees refreshing moments in the shade of rich green woods, and evenings can be as cool as the 50F (10C). Also keep in mind, that as you gain elevation, it will be colder. For every 1,000 feet you climb, the temperature will drop 3.6°F (6.5°C for every 1,000 meters). What may be an 80°F / 27°C day in Cortina or Alta Badia could be 60°F / 15°C on one of the summits during the day, and 30s°F / 0°C in the evening!

• Bring comfortable clothing that will protect you from cold (and possibly wet) weather.
• Please make sure you bring the appropriate rain gear
