The Chestnut Route Walking Holidays

A perfect walking route if you love the mountains but want to enjoy a less demanding itinerary in the Dolomites. Walking in the foothills of the Dolomites you will be surrounded by mountains without having to climb high peaks or face demanding hikes and provides a gentler alternative to the Alta Via. The walk showcases the majestic Dolomites and offers endless views of peaks and valleys, castles and ancient abbeys. You will journey through picturesque orchards and vineyards that produce some of the finest Italian wines. You will enjoy the warm hospitality of the South Tyrolean people, in a region where German and Italian culture perfectly combine. Explore colourful Bressanone on your arrival and along the way, discover charming villages like Chiusa, a haven for artists and poets, and the vibrant city of Bolzano, the gateway to the Dolomites.

On our Chestnut Route walking holiday, you will stay in a selection of carefully chosen 3-star and 4-star hotels and B&Bs, each offering comfort and character. All rooms feature en-suite facilities to ensure a relaxing and private stay, and some accommodations also include the added luxury of swimming pools. Throughout your journey, you'll have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the region's exceptional local cuisine and sample its renowned wines, making this walking holiday as much a culinary delight as an outdoor adventure.
