Golden time in the Dolomites means autumn hues, fewer people and the delicious food of the late summer harvest. 

This Wander Your Way Adventure begins along the Südtirol Strada del Vino (Wine Route) in the town of Caldaro (Kaltern) where we enjoy some of the delicious food and wine of the region.

From there we’ll head north into the Dolomite mountains and to one of my favorite towns and natural areas on the planet — Castelrotto (Kastelurth) and Alpe di Siusi (Seiser Alm).

Castelrotto is a charming village surrounded by rolling hills and rugged Dolomite peaks. It also has a gorgeous town church.

We’ll get some outdoor time by tackling a couple of trails in Alpe di Siusi, the largest high-altitude Alpine meadow in Europe.

But we’ll also experience some of the history and culture by visiting Abbazia di Novacella, an Augustinian abbey near Bressanone (Brixen). The abbey also has a winery so we’ll have some wine with our history!

Further along on the journey we’ll cross over one of the beautiful Dolomite mountain passes to our stop in the village of San Vigilio di Marebbe. It’s here that we’ll embark on 2 amazing hikes in the gorgeous Fanes-Sennes-Braies Dolomite Nature Park — another of my favorite places!

As we end our time we’ll make a quick stop in the vineyards of the Prosecco wine growing region and make a toast to an incredible trip through northern Italy.
