Walking in Italy's Val Gardena: 20 Easier Walks in the Dolomites near Ortisei, Selva, and Santa Cristina by Laurel and Richard Barton is a great guide for people like myself who want easy hikes to explore the beauty of the area. The book is very easy to understand with clear directions on how to get there, how long it is, how hard it is and what you will see. I'm not going to leave home without it!

Thank you so much!! I am planning a trip to the Dolomites with my husband and my knees are too bad for very strenuous hiking. But it looks like this book has a lot of easy walks that don't take four hours to do. Thanks so much for the recommendation!

I second the recommendation - am still dreaming and planning, though. When I got the book, several friends asked to borrow it right away.

What a great review.
From what I have seen of the book I concur.
