Auronzo di Cadore

 

A natural gym under the sky. It is the territory of the Tre Cime Dolomiti Tourist Consortium in Veneto. The Belluno Dolomites with the Auronzo and Misurina valleys constitute a true natural paradise where you can carry out all types of mountain sporting activities. Of course walking and hiking, but also climbing.

The presence of lakes is fundamental as they also allow you to practice those disciplines linked to the aquatic world, including canoeing and fishing. A world of opportunities for those who love to live their holiday actively.

Between walks and trekking, following your own pace

Follow the path that enters the dense forest and walk listening to the sounds of nature. The scent of moss, the sun's rays penetrating the trees, letting yourself be guided by your own rhythm. Or go straight to the goal, one step after another, uphill. Feeling your calves pulling, your heart beating and your breathing becoming labored as the road becomes steeper, up to the top, until you reach that panoramic point that makes all the effort worthwhile. Or even climb up to the summit, attached to a steel cable, paying attention to every single step.

There are many different ways to walk and enjoy the mountains. Everyone can choose the one that best suits them, depending on their training, but also on the day. The area of the Tre Cime Tourist Consortium offers over 200 kilometers of marked paths, including relaxing walks and challenging trails, equipped paths and via ferratas, forest roads and high-altitude crossings. The ever-changing landscape allows you to cross valleys and woods, clearings and screes, rocks and sheer walls along the way. But above all it offers spectacular views thanks to the imposing Dolomite peaks, a UNESCO world heritage site. From the Tre Cime di Lavaredo to the Cadini di Misurina, from the Croda dei Toni to the Marmarole, from the Sorapiss to the Cristallo, from the Cridola to the Tudaio.

From the Tre Cime ring to Monte Agudo

Among all the routes there is an experience that remains engraved in the memory: the tour of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. As you go up, by car or on foot for the fittest, along the hairpin bends of the controlled traffic road that leads to the starting point of the excursion, you can enjoy the landscape, initially completely green and lush, then increasingly stripped of vegetation , harsh. The Auronzo Refuge is located at 2,320 meters above sea level, right below the southern face of the Tre Cime, and it is from here that you undertake the circular route that allows you to admire this masterpiece of nature. The Three Peaks stand out in all their majesty and grandeur, offering a breathtaking spectacle.

Just two kilometers from Auronzo is the Monte Agudo area. Known for winter skiing, during the summer it is the ideal starting point for walks at high altitude, thanks to the two chairlifts, including a modern four-seater with automatic coupling. In 15 minutes, from Taiarezze at 900 meters above sea level. you reach the Monte Agudo refuge at 1,573 meters above sea level and enjoy a splendid view of Auronzo and the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. From here several well-marked paths start to continue the journey into nature.
