In conjunction with a yoga instructor we will be hosting a 5-day lodge to lodge trekking and yoga holiday in the stunning Dolomites, Italy. Each day will consist of an hour’s early morning yoga class followed by a 5-6 hour trek of around 10 miles. The evenings will be spent in a mixture of mountain refugios, each with wonderful views and a hotel in Cortina D'Ampezzo.

After early morning yoga and breakfast we will check out of Columbia hotel (although bags can be left) and take a 15 minute drive to parking spot then circular walk to the beautiful Lac del Sorapis. Picnic lunch at the lake. The walk will be around 8 - 9 miles. Upon returning to the minibus we will drive to the Auronzo Hut where we will have dinner and spend the night

After breakfast and yoga we will walk around the iconic Tre Cima. Coffee at the Dreizinnenhütte hut which is on the other side of the mountain with great views. There is an ideal spot for a yoga session here. Return to the mini bus and drive to a parking place by the gate to the Di Ampezzo Natrural Parc. We will take a late lunch here before the 5 mile walk to the Sennes Hut, our hut for the next 2 nights. This will be our longest walking day. In all about 10 miles. Dinner in and night in the Sennes refugio

Today we will do a circular walk from the hut, find a nice spot for a picnic lunch and then return early afternoon. There is a great sunbathing spot on the balcony. This will be a more relaxing day of about 3 – 4 hours walking, about 6 miles. Evening yoga (depending on how everyone feels) and dinner in Refugio Sennes

After yoga and breakfast we will walk, via the Fodara hut where we can have a coffee, to the minibus. We will find a nice spot for our packed lunch on the way.
