Hiking Tour of the Dolomites CME

The Dolomites are pure alpine drama. Towering limestone spires, wild ridgelines, lush valleys, combined with a culture that blends Italian soul with Tyrolean mountain grit. Formed from ancient coral reefs and protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this range is a playground for hiking, trekking, and world-class climbing.

Days are spent exploring jaw-dropping trails and high alpine scenery. Evenings are all about comfort and connection in cozy mountain inns, great food, local wines, and time to unwind.  Each evening, enjoy engaging CME lectures provided by Wilderness & Travel Medicine.

Days 2–3: Iconic Peaks, Alpine Classics

Your first hikes set the tone with stunning variety from Tre Croci Pass to Monte Faloria, you climb through forests, ridgelines, and alpine meadows. The next day brings a true Dolomites icon, the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, where you’ll see towering rock spires, WWI relics, and nearly 10,000-foot views.
