Dolomites mid June 2021
 

I am planning a trip to the dolomites in mid-late June (just tickets booked currently). I have 7 full days there. Photography, driving and hiking (day hikes, nothing crazy) are my hobbies. I'm looking at staying in Oritisei and Cortina and plan on checking out the following:

Val Di Funes - from Oritisei
Alpe Di Suisi - from Oritisei
Seiser Alm - from Oritisei
Chiesetta Di San Giovanni In Ranui - from Oritisei
Seceda - from Ortisei
Selva - from Ortisei
Lago Di Braies - from Cortina
Tre Cime Di Lavaredo - from Cortina
Lago Di Sorapis - from Cortina
Sesto - from Cortina

Is this too much for 7 days? Part of the trip will be solo. I've done some complex itineraries in the past but they are mostly in urban areas. I'm unsure about how hard it is to find these locations in the Dolomites. Are they well marked (trailheads, lifts, hikes)? I've done my fair share of alpine hiking here in Canada so I'm assuming there would be many similarities. Am I wrong? Can I rely on Locationscout for the photo spots?

I'll also be renting a car. I've been to Italy a few times and I'm comfortable driving there (driven in the major cities, Amalfi Coast etc.). Looks like the recommended drive is from Varona to and a loop around the Dolomites. Would really appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Alpe di Siusi is the Italian name for Seiseralm: 30 min by bus (every hr) from Ortisei
Selva is 20 min byi bus from Ortisei (bus every 30 min)
Val di Funes/Vilnössstal: full day hike from Ortisei (the first half can be done by Seceda cableway, if it runs in June) or about 15miles by road (detour via Eisack Valley). Bus every hr.
Ranui: last stop of the Villnösstal/Val di Funes bus line
Seceda: cableway station between Ortisei and Val di Funes/Vilnösstal
Lago di Braies/Pragser Wildsee:some 20 miles from Cortina d'Ampezzo. Good road via Toblach. 5 daily buses via Toblach
Sesto/Sexten: some 20 miles from Cortina d'Ampezzo. Good road via Toblach. 5 daily buses via Toblach
Tre Cime (Rifugio Auronzo): road from Cortina d'Ampezzo via Misurina
Lago di Sorapis: day hike from Cortina d'Ampezzo. The first half can be done by cableway (if it runs in June).

neckervd, thanks so much, this is extremely helpful! Looks like all this is very doable in a week especially with a rental car. Do you see a lot of crowds on the weekends?
