Half-day hikes in the Dolomites

Short routes, under two and a half hours of walking, good for a light outing or when time is tight.

You don't always have a whole day to spend in the mountains. The Dolomites have plenty of half-day hikes: short routes, under two and a half hours of walking, ideal for the afternoon you arrive, for an easy morning, or for travelling with kids.

This page lists the short walks, often panoramic loops you can reach by car or cable car. For each one we give the time, the elevation gain and the starting point, so the outing slots into your day without trouble.
