Running
Embark on a legendary trail running journey across the Dolomites on the Alta Via 2—known as the "High Route of Legends." Stretching from Alta Badia to Trentino, this exceptional north-to-south route is more challenging than the Alta Via 1, staying at higher elevations (up to 2,900m / 9,514 ft) and offering unmatched rewards in scenery and adventure.
You’ll run through the dramatic Puez-Odle Natural Park, across the vast Sella Massif, and around the iconic Marmolada—home to the Dolomites’ highest peak and largest glacier. Explore the rugged spires of the Pale di San Martino range, and pass through charming alpine villages like La Villa, Corvara, and Colfosco in Alta Badia, as well as Val Gardena, Val di Fassa, and Trentino.
Expect a mix of high-altitude ridgelines, vast pastures, rocky moon-like plateaus, and lush wooded valleys—all framed by towering peaks. This longer version of our AV2 route even includes an exhilarating Dolomites sentiero—a cabled mountain trail that adds just the right touch of thrill.

- Traverse the Dolomites from Alta Badia to Trentino on the famed Alta Via 2
