Overview

The Dolomite Diaries: Quiet Trails of Northern Italy is a deeply personal and evocative journey through one of Europe's most breathtaking and mysterious mountain ranges. Told in the first person, this narrative reveals the lesser-known paths of the Italian Dolomites-those hidden away from ski resorts and tourist crowds, where silence reigns and the spirit of the mountains breathes freely. From the mirror-like waters of Lago Federa to the haunted tunnels of Lagazuoi and the rolling meadows of Alpe di Siusi, the author walks with reverence, uncovering the delicate balance between solitude, memory, and belonging. Each trail becomes a meditation on time, history, and the wild resilience of nature. Part memoir, part travelogue, and part philosophical reflection, The Dolomite Diaries is not a book about conquering peaks-it's about listening to them. Through encounters with Ladin villagers, shepherds, storms, and silence itself, the author finds not just adventure, but meaning. For lovers of slow travel, mountain solitude, and poetic nonfiction, this book is a call to walk more gently on the Earth-and to rediscover the quiet places within ourselves.
