5.0 out of 5 stars
This is the one you need
If you're thinking of heading to the Dolomites to do some trekking (and having just come back from a month's holiday there, I strongly advise you do) then this is the book you need to take. Good maps, accurate route descriptions, and plenty of route options and other details to ensure you negotiate the mountains successfully. Excellent.

The times listed for individual legs can be accomplished only with a very light pack and at a good clip, if actually trekking, be sure to add 20% to the given times when planning overnights. You do want to enjoy the views, don't you? Also add in time for taking pictures, lunch, and rest stops (the authors suggests this in the introduction).
