Tucked away in the northeastern corner of the Italian Alps lies the mountainous region known as “the Dolomites.” Some of this area was once part of Austria, and today the blend of cultures, languages, and lifestyles creates a beautiful melting pot of Alpine magic. I recently embarked on an epic 10-day trip to the region with my partner, which I’ve compiled into this detailed itinerary. From summiting peaks to admiring them from the sauna, we enjoyed a little bit of everything during this car-free summer trip to the Dolomites.

Solo travel as a woman can be freeing but also a little intimidating, especially if you’re heading somewhere remote. Few places in Ireland get more remote than County Kerry.

Read on for my solo female traveler tips, things I’d do differently next time, and the full four-day road trip itinerary through Kerry, Ireland.
