THE 10 RULES FOR HIKERS
- Prepare your itinerary beforehand
- Choose an itinerary that suits your physical abilities
- Choose suitable clothes and equipment
- Check the weather forecast
- Hiking by yourself is more risky; if this is the case, take a mobile phone with you
- Leave information about your itinerary and your expected return time
- If you are not sure about your itinerary, contact an Alpine Guide
- Pay attention to signposts and directions that you find along your way
- Do not hesitate in going back if you feel too tired
- In case of emergency call 112
Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

In the Dragon Forest, these powerful winged creatures that live on Latemar have left lots of clues to help you find them.
Look for the signs they have left behind them on a wonderful trail created with the help of the Soraperra Art School in Pozza di Fassa.
Here, students and teachers from the school have displayed the "proof" of the dragons’ presence: genuine pieces of Land Art. Ask for the Play book (€ 6,00) at the info point in Gardonè, that tells you the story of a dragon!
There are lots of great games to put your Dragon Seeker’s skills to the test. If you manage to complete the book, you will receive a small prize from our expert dragonologist.
