The Dolomites World Heritage Geotrail, a 360° experience through the nine Systems of the Dolomites World Heritage Site, has been created in order to give hikers a simple, step-by-step introduction to the extraordinary geological history of the Dolomites.
The unique geology of these mountains, which is the main reason for their having been recognised by UNESCO, is the trek’s common thread that, simply put, gives visitors an appreciation of their significance and awe-inspiring beauty today. Information on geology is occasionally complemented with other aspects that are useful for understanding the region and the processes that characterise it, such as ecology, local history and toponymy. The route takes advantage of the existing network of paths, including several high-altitude routes, but the Geotrail’s unique characteristics make it the most important route for exploring and discovering the Dolomites World Heritage Site.
