Day 32: Venice, Murano and Burano – 11km

Headed out to the train station and got myself a day pass for the public transit, which is boats! No cars, no trains (although it looks like a commuter train map). There are in fact no cars in Venice, just a few that will take you across the dam to the mainland. And there isContinue reading “Day 32: Venice, Murano and Burano – 11km”

Day 31: Venice – 11km

Went out exploring again the next day, where ever my feet would take me. Had an Americano every morning and a little sweet pastry. Found a bench close to the canal and watched the birds. Across bridges, through alleys, into courtyards, across piazzas,…. Got lost more than once in the way back. Past several littleContinue reading “Day 31: Venice – 11km”

Day 30: Longarone to Venezia- 11km

Headed out just after 9:00 after another fabulous and relaxing breakfast. Felt really well taken care of at the Casa Gilda. Another beautiful day. Hoping to catch the Cortina Express to Venice, at 10:30? Talked, with very few words, to a lady at the train station who was waiting for a different bus with herContinue reading “Day 30: Longarone to Venezia- 11km”

Day 29: Longarone – 4.5km, debriefing and a chill day!

Was going to stay for only one night but it turned out I had logistics/travel issues and badly needed a day off. So I stayed in Longarone for another day. Spent lots of time on the phone or with the phone planning my next moves while having purrrrfect company all morning! Took a walk intoContinue reading “Day 29: Longarone – 4.5km, debriefing and a chill day!”

Day 28: Rifugio Sommariva to Forno di Zoldo – 8km

All morning it was pouring rain! It was supposed to get a little better around noon. There were 3 girls heading out into the valley around 8:30 while it was just terrible and our roommate Svenja took on the big, long, challenge over a difficult “Joch” around 8:00. The only hikers left at the RifugioContinue reading “Day 28: Rifugio Sommariva to Forno di Zoldo – 8km”

Day 27: Rifugio Carestiato to Rifugio Sommariva al Pramperet – 14km

Today was supposed to be a rainy day. Big surprise in the morning when there was sun and some blue skies visible. Still the afternoon was going to be wet and thunderstorms would be very likely. I managed to leave at 8:00am and later I was so glad I did! The first 2km went alongContinue reading “Day 27: Rifugio Carestiato to Rifugio Sommariva al Pramperet – 14km”

Day 26: Rifugio Vazzoler to Rifugio Carestiato – 11km

Left at 8:30am with another beautiful day ahead, about 4.5 hours if I didn’t stop which of course is not going to happen! And today I decided I was going to write as I go. That might make it less of a chore at the end of the day and more in the moment. BecauseContinue reading “Day 26: Rifugio Vazzoler to Rifugio Carestiato – 11km”

Day 25: Rifugio Tissi to Rifugio Vazzoler – 10km

In the morning I couldn’t get out of my uncomfortable bed (too hard and finally warm) so I missed breakfast, until 8:00am! As I didn’t have far to go I had lots of time. Had a cappuccino and went up to the peak and spent some time there before I headed out around 9:30am. TodayContinue reading “Day 25: Rifugio Tissi to Rifugio Vazzoler – 10km”

Day 24: Alleghe to Rifugio Tissi – 10km

Left after confirming my next 4 accommodations. Finally made a decidion to stay in the mountains as long as I can and possibly skip Belluno. Left Alleghe and discovered more devastating images of the rock- and mudslides that had happened in October 2018. This explained the area I had been hiking through yesterday and theContinue reading “Day 24: Alleghe to Rifugio Tissi – 10km”
