Dolomites Adventure – Corvara, Tre Cime & Asolo

The Dolomites are truly breathtaking. We stayed at the Movi Family Apart-Hotel in Corvara, a kid-friendly spot with a play center, pool, delicious breakfast desserts, and E-bikes for the adults. Nestled among mountain trails and gondolas, it offered stunning views and cool temps ranging from the 50s to low 80s.

One highlight was taking the Col Alt gondola up to the Piz La Ila area for a scenic hike. The kids did great (especially Annika helping her brother on the steep parts), and the panoramic vistas were unforgettable.

The next day, we drove across Passo Falzarego—a gorgeous route—to Tre Cime di Lavaredo, stopping through Cortina (a bigger ski town, though we preferred Corvara). Thanks to a parking reservation at Rifugio Auronzo, we were able to drive straight to the trailhead. We hiked part of the famous Tre Cime loop, reaching Rifugio Lavaredo—a manageable adventure for the kids with world-class views.

On our final day in Corvara, the kids enjoyed the hotel’s play center while we rented E-bikes. Julia found the Bike Beats - Fle Trail, which we accessed via a scenic turbo-assisted ride and a chairlift. The downhill trail was thrilling—technical with tight turns—but the vistas made it all worth it.

We ended our trip by meeting up with Aunt Patty in Asolo, a charming village where she’s been going for decades to visit extended family. We stayed at the lovely Villa Cipriani, which is also a stop for adventure tourists on the Backroads biking tour. The food was amazing—especially the tagliatelle that Dominic declared the best he’s ever had.
