Trekking & Running
Summer holidays in the mountains...
Trekking for everyone
The Hotel Des Alpes, a 3-star hotel in Cortina d’Ampezzo, is located in a particularly favorable position for trekking enthusiasts and for those who love low-altitude walks.
We are in the area of the Ampezzo Dolomites Natural Park which offers a variety of paths suitable for everyone, to discover the most beautiful panoramas, flora, fauna and legends that will fascinate even the littlest ones.
In Cortina there are over 400 kilometers of paths for walking in the mountains. They are all signposted and can be explored independently, with the help of a map, or accompanied by a professional mountain guide.
They range from easy walks, even at low altitude, to more challenging itineraries, always immersed in the suggestive and unique views of the Dolomites.
Many ski lifts – cable cars and chair lifts – are also open in the summer season to allow hikers to comfortably reach the starting points of the trekking itineraries.
By purchasing the Hiking Pass it is possible to access all the Cortina facilities with a single card and at advantageous conditions.

Trail Running
18 itineraries and more than 475 kilometers await you to run in the mountains.
The valley of Cortina d’Ampezzo is a natural paradise for enthusiasts of trail running with more or less challenging routes, suitable for everyone, for running on foot in an unparalleled natural context, in the setting of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The climate and altitude are also ideal for this discipline. Athletes can thus develop resistance and endurance.
For runners, Cortina provides detailed maps, GPS data available online, and training camps to prepare for competitions.
Of note are the major sporting events: from the Cortina-Dobbiaco Run to the The North Face Lavaredo Ultra Trail, passing through the Cortina Trail and the Cortina Skyrace.

Some of the most evocative routes
Suggested itineraries
At Lake Federa, at the foot of the Croda da Lago and Becco di Mezzodì, a paradise for excursions that can be reached from different starting points.
Excursion to Lake Sorapis, famous for the turquoise color of its waters and the magical atmosphere that surrounds it. It’s worth getting there, but you need to keep in mind that along the route there are short exposed sections equipped with wire ropes.
