Highlights
Legend has it that once upon a time, in the Dolomites, the Moon Princess became sick with nostalgia for her shimmering planet. A people of dwarves then covered the mountains with a network of threads of light and the princess recovered. The mountains, however, became ‘Pale Mountains’.
Winter hiking trails are regularly beaten. The attraction of snowshoe hikes, on the other hand, is that they often take place on open, snow-covered terrain and do not follow any well-trodden paths.
