Dolomites Hiking, D1

Our hiking adventures in Dolomites started on Monday, 23rd June at the Pampeago parking space, 1750m, where we overslept for the first time in our camper. This huge parking space dedicated to the ski slopes around was completely empty. We parked on its edge, closer to forest and just next to a lively spring. I personally slept like a baby.

The track we have chosen as a starter was supposed to start with a short cable car. That one was off, so we added some meters to the route before starting it.

Leaving our camper, we firstly reached Zichgalm then passing by lift station at Seggiovia Residenza we continued towards Rifugio Torre di Pisa 2671 m and to the main target Torre di Pisa.

Descenting we headed towards Oberholz, passed Malga Mayrl and rejterjoch and crossing one of the slope reached over camper just before the rain started.

The track took us 5h, 14,3km, 958 eg

We took a short break and get ready for transfer to our next hiking stage. Driving down the Pampeago pass, I had an idea to save some petrol and roll down without a gear. Suddenly some bad smell and a smoke was appeared by the wheels. Luckily there was a place to stop where we watched the brakes burning.

It might have been in the nick of time, we stopped the car and could still continue in the journey.

In one hour we arrived to Sella Pass 2218m and the caravan parking by Rifugio Carlo Valentini.
