Are Alta Via Routes in the Dolomites Ever Too Crowded?

Alta Via huts are typically fully booked in a hiking season, but this corresponds to their capacity. So, they cannot be described as crowded simply because they will rarely admit more than the number of beds they have.

On the other hand, in full season some particular trekking sections and places on Alta Via routes may have an increased number of day visitors and tourists from nearby valleys. But this has nothing to do with true multi-day trekkers that are on an Alta Via route.

In any case, crowd on Alta Via sections is never such that you should be worried about it.
