From ephemeral lakes in mountain meadows to rocky labyrinths hidden behind rock walls, ancient mining villages and abandoned hamlets, the prison of the Turks in the Dolomites, a proglacial lake, a rock that defies the laws of gravity, petrified bishops, dwarfs, gnomes and an elephant, caves, ravines, and mysterious portals, breathtaking views of the highest rock walls of the range, a forgotten and enchanting forest, lost bivouacs on high, secluded plateaus, solitary hermitages, stone books in an open-air library, the trails of Mesolithic hunters, a glacier between blood-red rock walls and another with a bewitching turquoise gaze, via ferratas to travel along in solitude, unknown and unnamed summits on topographic maps, fabled spirits of the air …
Secret Dolomites is a guidebook for travellers escaping the crowded paths to discover the range’s countless unknown and often spectacular sites.
