The Books of San Daniele: A hike through geology, history, and breathtaking landscapes.
Guiddy Difficulty Levels
Difficult
Description
A short excursion packed with emotion, nature, and memory. We will ascend above Erto and Casso, the two villages sadly known for the Vajont tragedy, to reach a truly unique place: the striking Books of San Daniele.
This is a natural rock formation in red ammonite dolomite, which incredibly resembles pages of a book stacked on top of each other and emerging along the ridge. A rare geological phenomenon that merges with the symbolic power of the place: a stone book sculpted by time, suspended between sky, rock, and memory.
Every step will be a journey through wild beauty and profound history, in a corner of the Dolomites where nature and the past meet in a touching way.
✨ An excursion that tells a story, teaches, and moves you. We look forward to experiencing it together with the Guidders community.

Guide

Alessandro
⛰ Hi there! I’m Alessandro. I’m 34 years old and live in the heart of the Dolomites, in the Cadore region. I am a certified International Mountain Leader (accredited by the Veneto Mountain Guide Association and UIMLA), a graduate in Sports Science, a mountain bike guide, and—believe it or not—a sommelier! After all, there’s nothing like a good glass of wine after a long hike. I love experiencing the mountains in every way possible: from trekking and trail running to mountain bike adventures. For me, moving through nature is pure energy, discovery, and emotion. Sharing this passion with others is my mission. Whether we are on a scenic trail or riding through the woods on two wheels, my goal is always the same: to provide authentic, active, and restorative experiences. See you on the trails… or maybe over a great glass of wine! 🍷🚵♂️🌲
