Tre Cime di Lavaredo

Tre Cime di Lavaredo loop from Rifugio Auronzo The three towers of the Tre Cime are among the most recognizable shapes in the Dolomites, and this circuit walks all the way around them, so their profile changes with every hour. It is about 9.1 km with roughly 400 m of climbing; allow four to five hours with stops at the viewpoints and huts. The catch is the access road: in 2026, driving up to Rifugio Auronzo costs €40 per car and needs a valid online reservation. Starting from Lake Antorno avoids the toll road but adds about 500 m of climbing.
