We're going to Italy from southern California that last 2 weeks in Sept.
Only rough plans so far, looking at a few day hikes in the Lake district, Dolomites, Cinque terre, Tuscany, day in Milan and Rome for flights in/out. We are going to pack very light, what ever fits in a backpack.
I've read that men don't typically wear shorts, is that still true? Also is it common to dress nice for dinner? I also don't want pack a lot of shoes, anyone have recommendations on a shoe brand we can hike in the Dolomites and still look ok walking around towns?
Thanks
