Incredible Day 10. The sun is shining and after the first 50 minutes we arrive at a hut, from there we walk straight to the foot of the impressive Dolomite towers. Rough stone, towering vertically just above our heads! The trail will be the whole day just like this! I feel so lucky and spoiled…
Category: Venice – Munich by foot
Pian de fontana – Rifugio San Sebastiano. Impressive Dolomites.
Day 9. The 11 people of the guided group wake us at 5am. They want to take breakfast at 6am for an early start. Of course we cannot sleep while they need an hour to pack up. Tired we get up at 7.20am and get to breakfast just in time. This time even muesli with…
Rifugio 7′ Alpini – Pian de Fontana. I made the via ferrata!
Day 8. It was so great to have my own room. I could publish yesterday’s post, read on my phone and when I woke up at night, I opened the windows to watch the stars. The sky was clear during the night, but when I wake up at 6am it’s cloudy. My weather app tells…
Belluno – Rifugio 7` Alpini. Thunderstorms.
Day 7. It’s Sunday and we take it slowly. I only have to hike about 5-6h and Claudia is taking a break anyway today. The B&B cares well for us. Not only could we wash our clothes in the washing machine yesterday for free and got invited to Schnapps and nice stories, we also get…
Rifugio Col Visentin – Belluno.
Day 6. A terrible night without sleep. The dormitory was humid and everything so dirty. I can usually live with that but last night I wasn’t able to sleep at all. After checking the time every half hour, I get up at 5.45am and sneak (more or less) with my stuff out of the room….
Tarzo – Rifugio Col Visentin. The first mountain.
Day 5. We wake up to sunshine and a very good breakfast. Energised we start into this day, finally into the mountains. At least a small one, the Nevagal. Claudia’s blisters are always painful in the morning when she starts to hike but she is continuing anyway. The first 90 minutes are rather easy ups…
Pontè della Priula – Tarzo. Nice people.
Day 4. Luckily we had thunderstorms and rain last night. The temperature is now bearable and shows little 20 degree Celsius at 7am as we start to hike. The clouds get closer now and it feels as if someone put some frosting on them last night! They are beautifully covered by clouds, but just the…
Pontè di Piave – Punte della Priulà. Uneventful.
Day 3. Luckily we only have 27km to hike today, still very flat. It’s more about getting the kilometres done, there is not much to see and although there are some clouds it’s still hot. So we are walking roads with plenty of cars, some sidewalks, some gravel, some vineyards and farmland, some more dam…
Jesolo – Pontè di Piave. Too hot.
Day 2. It’s been a difficult night, too hot to sleep with windows closed but too noisy with them open. Good breakfast and we start at 7h30 am, we have a long fay ahead. The first few hours are fine, mainly along the river and close to a beautiful lagoon we can unfortunately see only…
Venice – Jesolo. A beautiful city and a real beach
Early Sunday morning I am in the train to Venice. After 15minutes only we pass Duino. Wow, by foot it took me hours! It’s two hours to Venice and a short walk to the hostel where my sister is waiting for me. Great to see her, I look forward to having some company. We walk…
