WK 690 Alto Garda e Ledro

<p>The world-famous Olympic town of Cortina d'Ampezzo, a dream destination for mountaineers, climbers, walkers and landscape lovers alike, lies in the sun-drenched Ampezzo valley basin amidst beautiful larch forests and mighty cliffs. The Rother hiking guide "Dolomites 6" presents 55 selected hikes around the mountain sports center.</p> <p>Exciting activities are made from the valley or from attractively located huts: Hikes to clear mountain lakes or to panoramic peaks, but also easy high alpine crossings and secured climbing routes. In this Rother hiking guide, author Franz Hauleitner, an excellent connoisseur of the Dolomites, presents 52 one-day and three two-day tours in the Ampezzo Dolomites, the mountain areas around Cortina d'Ampezzo, around the Bòite Valley with Tofanen, Nuvolau, Croda da Lago, Monte Pelmo, Antelao and Sorapiss.</p> <p>Many of the hikes described here are not difficult and follow excellent marked trails, so they can also be undertaken by less trained mountain enthusiasts. Some of the tours presented are more challenging and require appropriate mountaineering experience. Each hiking suggestion is illustrated with a color photo, an informative altitude profile and a hiking map with route entry. The entire area between Bruneck, Brixen, Bozen, Cortina d'Ampezzo and Sexten is covered by the six available Dolomites volumes from Bergverlag Rother. </p> <p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Franz Hauleitner | Bergverlag Rother | 5th edition 2016 | 144 pages | 67 color illustrations, 55 elevation profiles, 55 hiking maps at a scale of 1:50,000 and 1:75,000, two overview maps at a scale of 1:220,000 and 1:500,000 | format 11.5 x 16.5 cm | paperback with Polytex lamination</span></p>
