Dolomites: Walking back to Canazei from the Col Rodella gondola 2017:06:25
pageid = 4771 parentid = 7704
The day started wet and misty, so we headed up the main valley alongside the river, but as the cloud started to clear we headed back to the Col Rodella gondola, and were rewarded with a sunny afternoon up in the mountains with excellent views.
We walked 5.7 miles in the valley, and then 6 miles from Col Rodella back down to Canazei.
