South Tyrol · 7 days · From EUR 750 (indicative)
FunActive TOURS is a tour operator based in northern Italy, working out of the Dolomites and the surrounding regions. Their catalogue covers hiking, road cycling, e-bike and mountain bike holidays, gravel routes, bike-and-boat trips and cross-country skiing. Some trips are guided; the ones featured on this page are self-guided, which means you follow the route yourself using the maps and app they provide.
A typical week works like this. You arrive at the first hotel, collect your route materials, and start walking or riding the next morning. Your luggage is transferred ahead to the next stage, so you carry only a day pack. Each night is in a booked hotel along the route. The distances and climbs are set out per day on each individual tour, and the difficulty is graded easy or medium. You set your own start time each morning and stop where you like.
The routes themselves are the draw. The hiking weeks go through the nature parks of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site, with stages past mountain huts. The Alta Via tour covers the long-distance high route. The Dolomites–Trieste ride heads east through Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and the Dolomites–Venice route follows the line of the old Dolomites railway down towards Venice. There is also a Val Gardena hiking week and a Panoramic Hiking in the Dolomites tour, the longest in the catalogue at nine days.
Mountain bikers have several options: RODA Nord (four days, from 750 €), RODA Sud (six days, from 1.245 €), a Mountainbike – Dolomites Nature Parks week (seven days, from 799 €) and a RODA Sud Cortina route listed for 2027. In winter there is the Dolomiti XC-Ski-Safari, eight days of cross-country skiing from 1.279 €.
The company also runs tours further afield — the filter list on the site includes Iceland, Tunisia, India, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Croatia, France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Morocco and Slovenia — but the Dolomites trips are the core of what is shown here.
