I do the same. I love hiking in the Dolomites this time of year — cool air, peaceful trails, and views that are just unbeatable.
🥾 The Dolomites are the perfect Ferragosto getaway: • Beginner-friendly hikes • Early morning solitude • Mountain huts (rifugi) with hearty alpine food and espresso in the clouds
While many head to the beach, some of us trade swimsuits for hiking boots — and it’s totally worth it.
📍 [Insert your trail/area — e.g., Seceda, Alpe di Siusi, Lago di Sorapis] ⛰️ Hiking season runs through September — so this is also one to save for next month.
