Thank you so much for sharing 😍
Amazing video 👍👋
You are very welcome! ;) Have an incredible trip, you will never want to leave!
Can’t wait for the vlog! ❤😍
Caro! Holy mackerel - you have been traveling for what seems like years in SA, is all well! Looks like you are having a blast! Yeah I might just do a short and then move on to Lake Garda 😉 we’ll see
That was beautiful thank you for sharing
I'm really glad you enjoyed it and commented! It is an incredible place that I'm still dreaming abou. but like I said, thankyou so much for watching. My next 4 or 5 videos are in Europe, have some Lake Garda vids coming up, and then some in the South of France. I'm really trying to grow my travel channel to travel more and you support is very much appreciated!
Really well put together travel guide, excellent work!
Ayyyyy thanks! Such a magical region of Italy!
Amazing video Jax!!! One of our favorite parts of the trip was sharing with you guys a couple of those locations 😎. I’ll definitely be looking forward to your next videos and hope to see you soon in Costa Rica 🇨🇷
ayyyyy Thankyou for the footage, I've gotten good feedback from those shots ;) y si si si yo tambien, queremos ir a Costa Rica en el futuro pero necissitamos mas dias per vacacion! Gracias de nuevo, Pura Vida! 🤙
Excellent! We’ll keep in touch, say hi to Megan 😃
I have only stayed in Ortisei, and there are so many viewpoints to dig into! Thank you for sharing them=)
Hello! Oh my goodness, I LOVE the Dolomites, they literally have my heart ❤️. And yes, Ortesei is just heaven! Thanks for watching and the comment 😜
Thank you for the beautiful video and useful travel information about fall in the Dolomites of Italy. 😮😊🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
@JacksonMeyer Thank you for kindness.
Hi from Seattle, this is the land of my grandparents. Next visit I would suggest you visit the Val di Non and Sole. The Castles will amaze you. Glad you enjoyed the trip, there is so much to see.
Thanks for the tips! It truly is a magical place, I am already thinking about our next trip!! Mountains 🏔️
Great video! I love Cortina and want to go back so bad!
Oh wow, no way, you've been? That's awesome - what places are your favorite in the region... aka, what should we do when we go back? ;)
@@JacksonMeyer My trip to Cortina was very short and that’s the only place I’ve been in the Italian Alps … hence I NEED TO GO BACK! 😂😂 I love how close Venice is too.
Amazing video brother!! You got some incredible shots, really makes me want to go back 🏔️☺️
I'm so stoked you watched my video! I certainly tried to get some good shots - easier said than done though haha 🤙
This is great! The beauty is surreal. If you don’t mind answering g, what led you to visit this particular part of Italy? Also, was it part of a larger trip? Thank you.🙏
Hi Jenny! it really was crazy, there were a few spots especially St. Magdalena, that in real life looks like it is animated, or like CGI - it just doesn't really look like a real place, it looks so perfect it looks fake... it's insane. And yeah, great questions - so we have loved Italy so far in our travels, and so this was our third trip as a couple and the last few times we have explored other areas of Northern Italy, but this has been on the list... also we knew that we needed to get to Chamonix, France about 8 days after we arrived for Megan to do a big hike (Mont Blanc) so we felt it would be best to stick around Northern Italy, and it was a perfect fit. We did about a week in Italy (together) and a week in France (separated)
@@JacksonMeyer Thanks! Yes, that makes sense about CGI! When I looked at some of the water shoes, I barely believed it was real! Take care and happy travels!
Going to Dolomites and this was helpful. Also going to Chamonix to see MB.
That's awesome to hear, thanks for the comment! I LOVE DOLOMITI. I will be back very soon, but enjoy your trip and enjoy chamonix
Thanks for sharing and great video Jack!! Loved the drone shots too! Do u mind sharing which hotel/bnb u stayed at in Cortina and Ortisei? Especially the balcony view of the long peak? 😮
Hi my friend! I thought that I listed it in the description, but in Ortesei we stayed in Albergo gasthof Samont (it is tough o find online but it's up by St. Jakob's church) and that is the beautiful mountain view of Longkofel/sassolungo. and in cortina we stayed at hotel Serena, thanks!
@@JacksonMeyer thank u!😁
Hi Jackson! Such an incredible video! Thankyou so much
Oh my goodness, I am so jealous! I cannot wait to go back, so we had a pretty full 6 full days in the area and were able to do all of these, but we stayed in ortesei for 3 days and then cortina d'ampezzo for 3 days and you would want to split up your time. I definitely would stay at family run hotels, NOT airbnb's, you get a more authentic experience. There are refugios everywhere, but I didn't stay in them so I cant speak to that. Have fun!
Hi Jackson!
Amazing video!
Do you happen to know if Alpe Di Suis and Seceda will be open for hiking in May?
I believe the cable cars will not be open.
Wondering if the hikes and huts will be?
Thanks.
Hi Swathy, thankyou for the question! I believe there still may be some snow on the ground in May, but people will still be hiking. You can look up live cams to see the snow situation. I don't know about the Hutte's you can look into that, but I bet they will still be operational. Have so much fun, I think the shoulder season (May/October) are great times to visit!
Lovely video! Especially the drone shots. Did you need any special permisson to fly your drone anywhere in the dolomites?
Thanks for the kind comment and a great question. You have to register and take a short class for the rules in Europe and in Italy. The European rules are just a Little more strict about when and where you can fly, but by following the rules, everyone is happier!
Jackson, such a cool video! You’ve sold me on the Dolamites!! Any idea when the cafes at the tops of the mountains are open? We are planning a trip for early October and are wondering if we could still eat up there
Hey man, thanks - I appreciate it, this region of Italy is insane, I can't wait to go back. As far as the refugios and Hutte's go, this is a pretty vibrant region year round as winter sports are big here, I'd be surprised if they shut down entirely. I think early october you'd be fine in many of the areas.
Many of the passes close in October
great video!! where was the alpine slide located??
Alpine slide was in Chamonix, France 8.5€ for 1 run (1 or two people) it was a blast! I made a CZcams short about it if you want to check that out 😜
I'm from Europe, Go to the Dolomites for over 25y. 2 to 3 times in summer and 2 times skiing in winter.
Do the other side to, Corvara, la villa, Lagazou, Sella...
wow, that sounds incredible, and we will absolutely be back. I Can't wait!
Just booked a trip to here for late int he summer/fall! Sweet video! Quick question for you, I saw a lot of great drone footage in the video, I'm considering bringing a drone also. Were the drone laws there pretty easy to navigate? Any tips on figuring out where you can and can't get drone footage? Thanks!
You will not regret it, this region is my favorite in Italy. 🇮🇹 Yes, so you need to go to the easa website and register and get brushed up on Italian and European laws. It’s essentially just a bit more strict. When we went to pragser wildsee it was clear no drones were allowed so I used footage from a friend, I really try to abide my the law. Definitely brush up as much as you can, but because of how wild it was, it really seemed like most places were open.
@@JacksonMeyer awesome. Thanks man! Really great video!!
hey thanks for the video and tips! We are planning our trip in a couple of weeks to the Dolomites, I think we might also follow this trend of going to Cortina and then Ortisei, did you had problems moving around in the areas you visited with these Limted Traffic Zones, I mean with a car? I know for Alpe di Susi there is one for sure, but don't know about the other locations? Also for your visit to Alpe di Susi, did you take the cable car also from Ortisei? Thanks!
Hey! Thanks for watching and the great question, yeah so a car is definitely recommended for sure, but that is mostly to get to the trailhead, lots of hiking here. And yes, we took the cable car up to alpe di suisi. I think Ortesei and Cortina are a great couple of bases... you won't be bored with that, so much to do.
@@JacksonMeyer loved the video! follow-up question here. if you drove, did you get international drivers permit (IDP) before your travels?
Hey, great video, i am planning to go this june for 5 days. I will definitely follow your list of places. One question: Did you drive yourself the entire area? If i rent a car, is it easy there to get a car with a driver? How about public transportation?
Oh my, you are going to have the time of your life! The dolomites are really an area where you do need to rent a car. everything is pretty spread out and public transportation isn't that good, to get the most out of it... rent a car. Can you not drive? I love driving in europe, it's really fun
@JacksonMeyer I can drive but don't have an international license or IDP. I will explore some options. Thanks for the reply ❤️
Ciao! I am planning for next summer. What town would you suggest I stay in to get the best experience. I have about three days and I want to see lago di braies. Grazie
Oh my goodness, how exciting!! Yes, I recommend staying in just 1 town if you only have 3 days. Cortina d’ampezzo!
Hello! Is it allowed to fly the drone in every location or did you need any authorization?
You have to take a quick acknowledgement test that you understand EASA rules and restrictions and then also understand the country's specific requirements. a small fee. I believe that I followed all the rules, and didn't fly at Lago di Braies as it was posted tp not fly there, but my friend had footage and so I used that. Thanks.
Can i visit all these beautiful places during February ?
Yes you can!! It will be different and potentially snowy, but gorgeous!
did you visit in June? How was the weather like ? Would you recommend going at any other time ?
We were here end of May :) I LOVED IT! I don’t think it ever gets too crazy here but I always like travelling in the shoulder season 🏔️
Hi!! Greetings from Costa Rica! Any tíos regarding entering italy with a drone?? (Mini 2)
Ayyyyy Pura Vida! I had to register mine with ENAC and EASA, I believe any drone needs to be registered (I think it was $5) in Europe because of privacy concerns. Pretty standard law except you can't be close to buildings or over people. There are slightly more restrictions, just need to look into it.
@@JacksonMeyer eyyyy pura vida MAE!! Jaja thanks for the tips!! I’m considering it!
why was the second cable car in seceda closed? is it too common in June ?
It was maintenance just for that time. It should be open. There are also some other options coming in from the other side, but those require different hikes to get to. Have fun!
What month did you go?
June and it was epic. Definitely will return in February though for winter time ;O
I didnt understand properly about where to park if one visits Santa Maddalena .. can you elaborate or share google map link where I can park car?
Yes, so there are two parking areas nearby: parcheggio piazza central parkplatz bergerplatz and st maddelena parking. Both of which will let you park and then walk through town up the road (about 30 mins) other people will be driving up there to the church and viewing spot but this is disruptive and will be aware that they clearly shouldn’t be there. Have fun!
@@JacksonMeyer thank you
Where did you stay ? Any hotels In Dolomites? To save some time
I listed where we stayed in the description I think. Albergo somont in Ortesei and Hotel Serena in Cortina
Do you get to see any wildlife ? or is it all extinct ?
Haha there are some animals out and about, I didn’t see anything crazy. I was looking for IBEX but didn’t see those until I went to the French alps

never ever swim in the lake braies beacuse you'll ruin the ecosystem
I don't believe this is true, everyone says that you can swim in it. Can you provide a source for your claim... Because if not, next time I'm there I'm going in and I can't wait!
