I am planning a 6 day tri to the Dolomites. We arrive in Milan 9-3 and the first day we'll drive to either Bergamo or Sirmione on Lake Garda . From there, what would be a good "loop itinerary " for that region, as far north as Bolzano and as far East s Cortina d 'Ampesso? Also--what are some suggested "light " - half day hikes? thank you so much - I sure will enjoy the advice!

This ongoing trip report may ffer some suggestions:

You are so lucky that the Go family is doing that right now. Follow their lead--great pics and good planning.

Amazing trip by report by the "go family"!

Agreed, he is a quick study and married a great planner--that is my son.

Oh wow ---You'll get to see ALL the puctures! I wrote to ehm earlier asking where they found the detailed maps that were mentioned. I'll contine to follow their trip. Thanks

I also want to thank the Go family. Their trip report has helped me figure out what I want to do with the last 4 nights of my Sept. trip.

Dolomites, here I come.

Also flying out of Munich NOT Zurich after some friendly persuasion from bobthenavigator....Thanks!

Masterphil - We'll be in the Dolomites Sept. 17-21. If you see a female with curly red hair - that could be me!
