Bolzano, Italy to Venice, Italy
The Dolomites cast a spell. The immense mountains. The sweeping flower-filled pastures and endless views from gondola rides. The simple goodness of spaghetti al ragù at a rifugio, family-run trailside huts. The decadence of gourmet cuisine. Enjoy the good life—the Italians call it la bella vita—and be spellbound in the Dolomites
