Hiking from Alta Badia to Cortina d'Ampezzo, July 2016

It was a really fantastic trip!

The food was great, the briefing was very helpful, hotels and refugios were all much nicer than we expected, and most importantly - the hiking and mountain scenery was incredible. The hikes were not so strenuous that we could not enjoy the scenery, but there was definitely a feeling of accomplishment at the end of the day and especially at the end of the trip. We also appreciated that Augustina provided several options for stops and ways to extend our hikes.

The only thing I would have changed about the trip was spending an extra night or two in the refugios and not having as many nights at the hotels. We would have loved to be able to spend more time at the refugios and to see more sunrises/sunsets, along with spending more time higher up in the mountains.
