Yes, the Dolomites are an ideal destination for a family holiday, thanks to the wide variety of activities and services designed also for children.
Throughout the year, families can enjoy experiences suitable for all ages: easy scenic hikes, themed and educational trails, adventure parks, cycling routes, and playgrounds surrounded by nature.
In winter, the Dolomites become a true paradise for families: ski schools in every resort offer courses for children and beginners, allowing them to take their first steps on the snow in a safe environment, guided by qualified instructors and through activities designed to make learning fun.
The Dolomites combine nature, safety, and tailor-made activities, making them the perfect setting to create unforgettable family memories. Our team will be happy to help you design a personalised experience for both adults and children, adapted to your interests and your family’s pace.
The best time for hiking in the Dolomites is generally from mid-June to October, when most trails are free of snow and weather conditions are stable and pleasant. This period offers the ideal setting to fully enjoy the region’s breathtaking alpine landscapes.
Each period offers a unique way to experience the Dolomites, depending on whether you prefer vibrant summer energy, peaceful early-season hikes, or the golden tones of autumn.
Yes, hut-to-hut hiking is one of the best ways to experience the Dolomites, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in nature, local culture, and authentic alpine life.
A well-marked network of trails connects traditional mountain huts, making it possible to hike from one to another over multiple days while enjoying spectacular scenery and experiencing genuine local hospitality.
With Holimites, you can choose between a self-guided or guided hut-to-hut experience, with everything organised for you: we take care of booking all accommodations and provide all the essentials for a smooth and worry-free high-altitude adventure.
On request, luggage transfer can also be arranged where possible, so you can hike lighter and fully enjoy the journey.
For a multi-day trek in the Dolomites, it’s important to pack a backpack that is light yet complete, ensuring safety and comfort throughout each stage of the journey.
Essential items include technical layered clothing, a waterproof and windproof jacket, sturdy hiking boots with good grip, and a comfortable backpack. Don’t forget water, energy snacks, sun protection (sunscreen, sunglasses, hat), and a warm layer, as mountain weather can change quickly.
For multi-day hikes, you should also bring a light change of clothes, a sleeping bag liner for mountain huts, and basic personal hygiene items. A headlamp and a small first aid kit are also recommended.
If you book a tour with Holimites, you will receive everything you need to navigate independently: detailed Tabacco maps and a personalised roadbook, allowing you to follow the itinerary clearly and safely. Before the trek, a briefing with a Holimites expert is included, where you will receive useful tips and can clarify any questions.
A well-packed backpack will allow you to fully enjoy your trekking experience, in total freedom and safety.
No, you don’t necessarily need a guide — the Dolomites offer a well-marked trail network that also makes self-guided hiking a great option.
However, choosing a guided experience can significantly enrich your journey.
A local tour leader doesn’t simply accompany you — they help you experience the Dolomites on a deeper level. Their knowledge of the terrain, wildlife, and local traditions adds meaning to every stage, transforming a hike into a more engaging and immersive experience.
With a guided tour, all practical details are taken care of: luggage transfers, accommodation, and logistics, allowing you to focus entirely on the experience. You also benefit from the reassurance of someone who knows the mountains and can adapt the pace and route when needed, especially in changing weather conditions.
With Holimites, you can choose between self-guided or guided tours, depending on the type of experience you are looking for.
You can choose how to experience our tours: self-guided, at your own pace, or accompanied by a local guide who knows and lives the Dolomites every day.
A self-guided tour is designed for those who love independence. We provide everything you need — itineraries, maps, and detailed information — and then it’s up to you to shape your journey, stopping whenever you like and adjusting your pace according to how you feel.
In a guided (escorted) tour, the local guide truly makes the difference: with in-depth knowledge of the route, they know how to set the rhythm of each stage, manage breaks at the right moments, and lead you to hidden gems you would hardly find on your own, while enriching the journey with stories, insights, and local traditions that turn each day into a more meaningful and immersive experience.
Designing a tour at Holimites is like perfecting a traditional family recipe. Since our founding in 2000, we’ve never relied on preset templates, but on people.
Growing up in our family-run hotels, we spent a great deal of time with our guests—listening to their dreams and learning what truly makes a holiday unforgettable.
We take these “ingredients” — feedback, “wow” moments, and those “it was the best day ever!” experiences — and combine them with our deep knowledge of the region.
Like a chef who removes anything that might spoil a dish, we carefully filter out logistical obstacles that could compromise the experience.
The result is a perfectly balanced itinerary, refined year after year, able to evolve over time while remaining deeply rooted in authentic Ladin hospitality.
