Three isolated dolomite spires rising above 2,900 metres form one of the most recognisable silhouettes in the Alps. The classic circular hiking trail (roughly 10 km) circumnavigates the pinnacles through boulder-strewn terrain, passing rifugios and offering evolving perspectives on the north faces. The view from Rifugio Lavaredo at sunset, when alpenglow colours the limestone orange-red, is a set piece for landscape photographers.
