On our upcoming trip we are planning 4 days in the Dolomites, homebase probably Ortisei? Weekends will probably be busy there in September so we're thinking about weekday stays. We will possibly have 2-3 nights prior to stay somewhere between Milan and Ortisei. We've been to Florence, Verona and Sirmione on Lake Garda...where would you consider staying within a two hour drive of the Dolomites? We are also thinking to use the train the first few days to somewhere that has car rentals, but we'll rent in Milan if a destination requires it. Thanks for any advice! Cheers!!
