Well, wonderful skiing in the Dolomites has passed, specifically in Val di Fassa, namely around Latemar and Alpe Luisa. As always I couldn't resist the temptation to try ski touring. On skiing around Latemar a short ascent also to the 2500m peak Pala di Santa Zanggen, and in Alpe Luisa to the Laste peak same 2500m, then enjoyment of 200-300m vertical soft ,,powder,, On top of Laste I earned RESPECTO from ski tourers, because I dragged up with regular skis otherwise sunshine, -16 C, no wind, pure enjoyment

Hello!
Those forumers who have already been on (mountaineering) vacation in the Dolomites, I'd ask for some advice. Any info welcome, from accommodation, best time, which tours you recommend...Thanks in advance!
Best

Regarding Dolomites I recommend you contact Mr. Ivan Hartman - Vanč, guide of PD Slovenj Gradec. His phone number is 031/609-831
If anyone, he will know best to advise on Dolomites, as he has them virtually at his fingertips.

Since Dolomites interest us too, I read these posts. I've already seen somewhere that you can sleep at parking lots, and now I see that jedriličar also wrote that it's completely normal. Really no one says anything if you just sleep in the car.lp

@petruša: look, Italians (South Tyroleans are actually Austrians) are smart people, they know we all bring them money. You drink beer, buy food, cable car ticket, gas ... so in the evenings at parking lots there are nice numbers of campers and cars parked, and I myself have pitched tent on parking lot a good number of times and slept peacefully, without anyone bothering or saying anything. The problem is with them that the number of rifugios (huts) that are part of CAI is limited, many are private, which don't have discounts for sleeping, so sleeping comes to 30-40 EUR, which I really don't want to pay. Anyway you get up at 5 in the morning to go to some serious ferrata, so better for that money drink beer, eat pizza and sleep a few hours in(next to) the car ...

@Petruša: as a traveler who has roamed almost all of Western Europe, I can tell you that there is nowhere anything special about sleeping in the car. Police might come around to check, ask for documents, in Germany they might even search the car, but they are always friendly and correct and do it in the sense of controlling foreigners and no one has anything against sleeping in the car at all. They don't even ask about it. Today when we are in the EU there's even less of that.
In Slovenia though I've heard they fined them for sleeping in the car. Just our attitude towards tourists...
The other is of course the safety aspect. I can knock on wood that I haven't had problems yet, but you have to choose places where there are at least some people, say a rest area on the highway where something is still open (at least a gas station) or in the center of (smaller) towns or where there are some houses, blocks,... Absolutely not somewhere alone, so that like 'no one will catch me'.
As for huts, Italy really has many private ones where the PZS discount doesn't apply (in CAI ones it does because PZS has an agreement with it). Well, I for example in Swiss-expensive Val d'Aosta at about 2000m slept in a private hut and overnight was only 20 EUR, true breakfast (which wasn't self-service, which isn't so unusual in foreign huts) was already 7 EUR.
But jedriličar, with the last sentence you woke up my longings: strenuous tour then pizza and beer.  Uh, need to go back to the Dolomites...

Just this for jedriličar:
True, in private huts the overnight price comes to about 30-40 euros, but for that money you eat like a king too. In Italian huts you're not hungry.
After all, even in huts under CAI umbrella it's similar - CAI regulates overnight prices, so it can be, if you take only overnight, quite cheap (8-10 euros). But if you want to eat well enough in the hut, half-board there also starts from 30 up. Anyway, in the end you have to decide yourself which option to choose.

@jax: tell me please, where did you sleep for 30 EUR and got food on top? I'll go there next time right away ...
In private huts 30 EUR is only sleeping

I'll join too. We are family (5 members) and for us cheapest and due to kids most comfortable is to rent apartment. We travel a lot and even in (or near) bigger cities I had no trouble finding affordable apartment (up to 60 eur with everything: cleaning, bedding...). With Dolomites I have a bit trouble  . We'd go to area (radius 50 km) Arabba (July before Ferragosto ) and if someone knows some affordable option, say "ski" apartments, if you "throw" link.
Thanks.

B&B from 28-35 Eur?
What's affordable here?
CAI - sleep 10 Eur
Breakfast - 5 Eur, total 15 EUR
So it doesn't hold water ...
Look, I spend a lot of time in the Dolomites, drink beer here and there and on tour and regularly ask what the prices are if I see a rifugio not in the CAI system, just for info. Yes, there is HB for 45 Eur and up, and yes, not that they are really full of guests, even in recent years not even the English, who earlier didn't really ask for prices

I'll go check it out ... Val di Fassa is a bit out of reach for me, too far. Or if there's some good ferrata nearby .... Thx for the advice

@megalodon: search a bit on the net, you'll find everything. Arabba is still in Veneto so it's a bit cheaper than the northern neighbors Corvara, Alta Badia and Val Gardena, I know because when I go skiing Sella Ronda I always sleep near Arabba. Anyway, start at ww.dolomitisuperski.com, choose Arabba and accommodation, then go on

And even cheaper down in the valley when going from Belluno to P.so Fedaia (Alleghe, Caprile, surrounding villages) ...
