Hey friend,
I’m going to be honest: The Dolomites GET CROWDED! Think tour buses, selfie sticks, and people in sandals sliding around the trail. Yeah, Sandals!
This summer the Auronzo Cadore officials instituted a new reservation system to access the Aurunzo tollway.
This area has seen heavy traffic due to influencers showcasing the Cadni Di Misurina lookout point and wanting a slice of dolomiti heaven in Tre Cime Di Lavaredo.
I talk about the madness I encountered when I went to this area last year and how we as consumers can do BETTER, especially if you are a content creator or blogger.
Is Cadni Di Misurina Worth the Hike?
I do feel kind of bad for generalizing the whole area but we have to do better!
However, on the flipside, one hike I do think solo hikers should do in the Dolomites is Tre Cime Di Lavaredo as the trails are easy going with a bit of elevation gain and you get beautiful views of the iconic peaks!
If you want to skip out on that entirely here is a guide to 5 lesser-known hikes near Cortina that offer just as much drama — without the crowd-control headaches.

See you on the trail,

Solo hiker. Crowd-dodger. Big fan of quiet, jaw-dropping views.
PS — Jordan Group Trip Update
Yes, it’s still happening — and Jordan is safe to visit. I’m in contact with my guide on the ground and staying up to date daily. If anything changes, the trip is fully refundable.
We’ll hike Petra’s back trails, eat Maqluba with local women, and stargaze in Wadi Rum.
