5 stars for the Adventure Base team! We are so pleased with our self-guided 9-day Tour du Mont Blanc trek through Adventure Base. The company had clear communication with us the whole way- from making our itinerary, checking in before with left the US, checking in once we got to Chamonix, and then while we were on the trail as well. They helped us chose a different route mid hike, making us feel safe and supported. They also did a lot of small things that went a long way- holding our luggage + dropping it off at our hotel to be ready for us once we were done hiking, providing us with digital + paper maps, a mini trail first aid kit and buffs. We are so thankful to have used them!
We had an amazing experience planning the TMB with Adventure Base. Everything went well before and during our trip. Great support from their side.
We did the TMB with adventure base- family with 2 teenagers. We honestly could not have asked for a better organised self guided tour- the accommodation, bag transfers, food and the communication by Adventure base were amazing. Only trumped by Mother Nature- what a beautiful and bucket list walk. Olly, Beth and Virginia were superb and we highly recommend this tour company.
Booked our 11 day self guided tour du mont blanc trek with adventure base who were great from the outset. From prior to booking in answering all of our questions, keeping us informed throughout the booking process all the way through to being readily available to answer any questions and provide alternative gpx and information on varient routes we wanted to take. Incredible team. Thank you

What will we do if the weather is bad?

This depends on a few factors and how bad the weather is. We’ll always aim to continue the trek even if it’s raining/snowing as long as it is safe to do so. The weather in Summer is generally very reliable with clear skies and dry conditions following the monsoons. If the weather is truly terrible for a day or two we will rest in the lodge until it passes or use our vehicle to move you along to the next stop.
Will I definitely make it from beginning to end?
In short, no. Whilst we will always strive to get you along the trek safely, sometimes the weather or other Read more
In short, no. Whilst we will always strive to get you along the trek safely, sometimes the weather or other factors like your personal fitness will prevent you from completing the trek. The lead guide will always conduct a meeting with the clients and other guides each evening to check how everyone is doing and to field any questions or concerns. All decisions will have client wellbeing as a top priority. But in 99 out of 100 cases you’ll make it! We will always provide vehicle support if necessary.

While the Alta Via 1 Trek offers various difficulty levels, it helps to have some hiking experience, but this isn’t essential. Some segments can be challenging, with steep ascents and descents. Proper physical fitness and familiarity with mountain hiking are recommended. Get in touch to discuss fitness levels.
AV1: How do i get to the start of the Alta Via 1
The most convenient airport to fly into for the Alta Via 1 Trek is typically Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) in Read more
The most convenient airport to fly into for the Alta Via 1 Trek is typically Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) in Venice, Italy. Venice is a major international airport with good connectivity to various parts of the world. From Venice, you can easily access the Dolomites and the starting point of the trek at Lago di Braies by various means of transportation:
Bus and Train: From Venice Marco Polo Airport, you can take a bus or taxi to the Venice Mestre train station. From there, you can catch a train to a nearby town like Calalzo di Cadore or Dobbiaco, which are relatively close to the Dolomites. These towns can serve as your base for transportation to the starting point of the trek.
AV1: How long does it take to complete the Alta Via 1 Trek?
The full Alta Via 1 Trek typically takes about 10 to 12 days to complete, depending on your pace and the specific itinerary Read more
The full Alta Via 1 Trek typically takes about 10 to 12 days to complete, depending on your pace and the specific itinerary you choose. Some trekkers may opt for shorter segments (we run a 9 day or 4 day trek) or customise their trek (get in touch).

Yes, it’s highly recommended to make hut reservations in advance, especially during the peak hiking season. The huts can fill up quickly, and having a reservation ensures you have a place to sleep and enjoy a meal at the end of your hiking day.

The Alta Via 1 Trek is a long-distance hiking trail in the Italian Dolomites. It’s a renowned trekking route that offers breathtaking scenery, rugged mountain landscapes, and the chance to explore the cultural and natural heritage of the region.
AV1: What should I pack for the trek?
You can find a full kit list further up on this page.
AV1: When is the best time to trek the Alta Via 1?
The ideal time for the Alta Via 1 Trek is during the summer months, typically from late June to early September. Read more
The ideal time for the Alta Via 1 Trek is during the summer months, typically from late June to early September. During this period, the weather is more predictable, and the trails are generally snow-free. However, it’s essential to check trail conditions and hut availability in advance.
AV: Do the refuges have showers?
Most refuges have showers, but not all of them. Some of the most basic and remote ones do not have Read more
Most refuges have showers, but not all of them. Some of the most basic and remote ones do not have shower facilities, or only have cold showers. Some of the showers, when available, work with a token that needs to be purchased directly from the hut. This gives you access to a limited amount of water (normally close to a 3 minutes shower), in order not to waste it.
Water in the high mountains is scarse and a shower is very much a luxury. Most huts use water that has been collected over winter or that comes from a spring. If the previous winter has been particularly dry then the water reserves might be limited and run out in the middle of the summer, or a spring could go dry. If this happens, then, the hut guardians might be forced to stop the use of showers even in those huts that have shower facilities. In this case the limited water available will be used for the toilets and kitchen, which are definitely more needed services than showers.
AV: Do they have charging points?
Yes, you will always be able to charge your phone and electronic devices. Sometimes there won’t be charging points Read more
Yes, you will always be able to charge your phone and electronic devices. Sometimes there won’t be charging points in your room, but there will be some in the common room or in the toilets. There might not be many of these, so you will need to take turns at charging your electronics. Some hikers prefer to take a small external power bank with them to charge their stuff. This could be a good idea, but I won’t recommend to take one that’s too big and heavy. A small one that could charge your phone once or twice would be enough, even though is not strictly necessary.
AV: Do they have wifi?
Some of the huts have WiFi but some others don’t, especially those huts that are more remote. Even when Read more
Some of the huts have WiFi but some others don’t, especially those huts that are more remote. Even when WiFi is available, beware that it might not always work, or it might only be switched on for a limited amount of time. If you need to check information such as the weather or the bus timetables just ask the guardians, they’ll be able to help. As for the rest of the time, not having WiFi might be a good opportunity to have a chat with some fellow hikers!
AV: How exposed is it? (Comparatively to the TMB)
The Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites follows established and well maintained paths. It crosses, however, some pretty exposed and steep Read more
The Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites follows established and well maintained paths. It crosses, however, some pretty exposed and steep terrain as well. The Dolomites are full of scree slopes and boulder fields, so it’s not unusual to find these along the way. The AV1 requires some hiking experience, sure footedness and being comfortable with exposure. It is definitely a step up from other treks such as the Tour du Mont Blanc and should not be underestimated.
AV: Is there snow on the trails early and late season?
It depends on the amount of snow that accumulates on the ground over the winter. There might still be snow Read more
It depends on the amount of snow that accumulates on the ground over the winter. There might still be snow until the first week of July after a very snowy winter. If there’s lots of snow some of the passes, such as Forcella del Lago on the way to Rifugio Lagazuoi on day 2 of the hike, are impassable and alternative plans need to be put in place (alternative routes are possible). On the higher sections of the trek it’s not unusual to encounter snowfall even in the middle of the summer. This, however, doesn’t often cause a problem, but care and the right equipment are needed.
AV: What are the WW1 caves all about?
The area around Cortina d’Ampezzo and Passo Falzarego is where the old border between Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire Read more
The area around Cortina d’Ampezzo and Passo Falzarego is where the old border between Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire used to be. Lots of battles were fought here during WWI, and both parties were using the mountains at their advantage to protect the front line. In the area of Cinque Torri/Passo Falzarego/Passo Valparola are still visible some of the trenches and tunnels built by the soldiers from both sides during the war, and some of these can be visited by tourists and hikers.
The main tunnel network was dug into the Lagazuoi mountains, just below Rifugio Lagazuoi. If spending the night there, it is possible to descend to passo Falzarego through the tunnels the next morning, before continuing on the AV1. The tunnels, however, are graded as a via ferrata, which means that you will need to have the right equipment (harness, helmet, via ferrata lanyards and a headtorch) in order to go through them safely.
AV: When’s the earliest / latest you can tackle this trip?
Same as for most hut-to-hut routes in the Alps, they can be walked during the refuges’ opening season. In the Read more
Same as for most hut-to-hut routes in the Alps, they can be walked during the refuges’ opening season. In the Dolomites this goes from middle/end June to the end of September. Outside of this time it will be difficult to find accommodation. Some huts have a winter room that hikers can use but this is just an empty unmanned shelter with beds and sometimes a log burner. Outside of the huts’ opening season, as well, there could be snow on the ground making the trek more difficult and potentially dangerous if not equipped in the right way and with the right knowledge about the winter mountain environment.
