Yes, and you did a nice job, too. No criticism as such - keep up the good work.
What I was vaguely moaning about is that it's all stuff we have possibly heard before or could read somewhere else. Since you live in the area I'm sure you could give detailed info and a wee bit of local culture just for your immediate area, stuff that is not documented anywhere else in English. Dig your hands into the leaf litter and get close ups on bugs and reptiles, rather than swooping over the forest canopy, if you see what I mean.
All that stuff I wrote about the Dolomites being such a big area was just to suggest a need to break it up into holiday sized chunks - I mean you wouldn't go for a one week rock climbing trip to "Britain". You would go to North Wales, or Cornwall (not the Peaks, of course).
Perhaps a different title would have made it clear that this (very nice but rather busy) area of the Dolomites is a great holiday venue.
A general article about the Dolomites that would be (I think) really interesting would be a scheme to break it up into sections with descriptions of what characterizes each area to help folk choose according to their peculiar karma.
