Great video man. Appreciated your realistic and no-nonsense take on things compared to most vids that just approach it like a big area advertisement. Hope you keep traveling and post more!
this is one of the most imformative travel videos I've watched , I can't believe you only have 92 subscribers! such a underrated channel. I am still deciding whether to go to Italy and Dolomites in mid October. would it be too cold then ?
@@RyanTravels100 sorry one more question: what's your experience / suggestion on booking of accomodation in advance? I sort of want to only figure out my intnerary when I am over there depending on the wehther etc. is it doable to decide the destinations and only book accomodation a few days in advance as I travel in Italy and switzerland ? thanks
For sure! Rifugio Nuvolau via Rifugio Averau on AllTrails www.alltrails.com/trail/italy/veneto/rifugio-nuvolau-via-rifugio-averau?sh=nasltn I’ll update the rest in the description
Outstanding video, no nonsense, ALL helpful info. Just decide to hike Dolomites in July/Aug 2025 and started the research. Where to? Rent a car or not? Many Thanks!
I would definitely rent a car, the Dolomites are so spread out so if you want to see a few different spots it will be easier with a car. Plus if you want to beat the crowds you need to get up early before transit is even running. The western half has the rosengarten national park, alpe di siusi and many other iconic things, but the eastern half has tre cime di lavaredo, cortina and many more hikes. Honestly, no matter where you go there is lots to see. Also, side note: look up Pizzeria La Cantinetta on google maps - great tiny Italian pizza shop run by an old man and his son
@@RobertWildling I rented my car in Milan by the train station, because I took the train in from Switzerland where I was the week before. I honestly can't remember the cost, but I remember thinking it was about average cost per day... comparable to other places in i've been in USA/CAN. Gas however was a big cost... it was around 2 Euros per litre throughout the dolomites
Hi, I hiked this summer a week in the rosengarten-area from hut to hut (with my dog) and if I should give you a tour-tip I would send you on the hiking trail "Alta Via 1". Yes, its no secret tip but on this 8 day hike (from hut to hut) you will get a great picture of the different landscapes of the dolomites. If you are a little bit lazy: there are a few professional travel organizer in the internet. They organize it for you, so you can save the car rent. I wish you a great tour!
Hey mate, I am interested in doing the WW1 tunnels trail but I have already done a 20 mile loop in Tre Cime that went around Cima Una and Cima Grande. Do you think this trail would still be worth doing given I’ve already covered a large part of Tre Cime? Also is it possible to do without climbing gear?
The tunnels are a cool experience but if you’ve already hiked through most of the park, this wouldn’t be drastically different than what you have already experienced. If you’re in the area it’s worth doing, but I wouldn’t fly across the continent just for this one hike. As for climbing gear- I wouldn’t advise going to the top of paterno without the gear, but it’s not needed for the tunnel portion
Thanks❤
Great video. THANKS! Heading to that area for a month in September and we can't wait!!
Enjoy! That’s the month I went as well. Less tourists, less mosquitoes, great weather
good that you dont push the overcrowded spots...
just cause there is a cable car you dont have to use it use your feet ;)
Great video man. Appreciated your realistic and no-nonsense take on things compared to most vids that just approach it like a big area advertisement. Hope you keep traveling and post more!
Glad you enjoyed!
We’re heading to the Dolomites early September this year. This is super helpful!
September is the perfect time to go. Less tourists, the weather is still warm, and best of all … the mosquitoes are gone lol

Thanks! It would definitely be cooler fall weather but it might be nice if you’re doing long hikes. I’d bring a jacket and get after it

I had no problems what so ever

@@RyanTravels100 Where did you rent your car? And how much was it per day or per week, if I may ask?
