THE DAY
WHAT THE DAY LOOKS LIKE
One country away
The Dolomites are three hours from here and they look nothing like Bavaria: pale limestone towers, Italian coffee, Tyrolean food, and a road network built for exactly this kind of day. We leave early, cross the Brenner, and are at the first lake before the buses arrive.
Lago di Braies, early
The Pearl of the Dolomites is famous for a reason and crowded for the same one. We time it so you see it the way it deserves — the wooden boathouse, the green water, the wall of rock behind it — while it is still quiet.
The passes
Falzarego, Sella, Gardena. These are the roads people drive the Dolomites for, and in a silent car with a glass roof they are something else again. We stop where the view earns it, not where the car park is biggest.
Lunch at 2,752 metres
The cable car to Rifugio Lagazuoi puts you on a terrace above the whole range. It is the best lunch table in the Alps, and we try to be there at the right hour.
A long day, honestly
Around thirteen hours door to door. It is a lot, and it is worth it — but we would rather say so before you book than after.
CHOOSE YOUR AFTERNOON
This is where a private day earns its price. Depending on how you feel by lunchtime, we pick one together.
THE ROUTE
HOW THE DAY RUNS
Garmisch-Partenkirchen → Brenner → Lago di Braies → Cortina → Passo Falzarego → Sella & Gardena → Garmisch-Partenkirchen
• Early pick-up at your accommodation in Garmisch-Partenkirchen — the day starts before the crowds do.
• Over the Brenner — a scenic drive into Italy with a stop for a proper espresso.
• Lago di Braies — a relaxed walk along the emerald water with the mountain standing in it.
• Hidden lakes and viewpoints — a quieter turquoise lake and curated stops facing Tre Cime and Monte Cristallo.
• Cortina d'Ampezzo and Passo Falzarego — the Olympic town and one of Italy's legendary mountain roads.
• Lagazuoi, 2,752 m — cable car up for lunch on the terrace among the limestone peaks. Ticket and lunch extra.

• Back in Garmisch in the evening, door to door.

BEFORE YOU COME

WHAT TO BRING
• Comfortable shoes for short walks
• A warm layer — it is much colder at 2,750 m than down at the lakes
• Sunglasses
• Your passport or ID: the day crosses into Austria and Italy
KNOW BEFORE YOU BOOK

NOT ALLOWED
• Pets
• Alcohol in the vehicle
