ORMA
A steady, rewarding climb from the 2236 m pass up to one of the best 360° viewpoints in the Dolomites.
This is a point-to-point route, so plan the return: retrace your steps or check local buses; 520 m of gain over 5.5 km is a real climb: budget rests, and halve expectations for short-legged dogs; no water points are mapped on this route, so carry everything your dog will drink.
Mapped start suggestion, Passo Giau. Check current access before travelling.
Do not rely on potential water locations being available or drinkable. Carry enough for the full walk.
Use the live forecast, check local access information and be ready for changing mountain conditions.
The trail rating above describes the mountain, and it's the same for every dog. How it suits yours depends on their build, age and health. See this route's match — scored for a medium dog until you add your own, free and in a minute.
