DOLOMITES DMC & Ski experience

– The Dolomites, also known as the “Pale Mountains”, are a mountain range in the northern Italian Alps covering an area that is shared by the provinces of Belluno, Bolzano, Trento, Udine, and Pordenone.

Their geographic extension, however, is not simply based on complex and unusual geological elements; it also finds its roots in tradition and in the pages of history, which more or less coincide with the widespread idea of the Dolomites that people have today. The Dolomite region is characterized by jagged peaks and ridges with scenic valleys nestled in between.

– Cortina d’Ampezzo is a paradise if you love skiing, climbing and trekking. In fact, it features some of the most beautiful mountains, like Cristallo or Cinque Torri, recently inscribed on the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.

There are also many international events, like the women’s Alpine Skiing World Cup and the Coppa d’Oro delle Dolomiti classic cars competition.

If you decide to spend your winter holidays in the Ladin Cortina you will have 120 km of ski slopes at your disposal, distributed in the ski areas of Cristallo-Faloria-Mietres, Tofane, Lagazuoi and Cinque Torri, all included in the Dolomiti Superski resort. Some of the ski slopes are well known, like the famous Canalone, Vertigine Bianca and Olimpia, where the women’s Alpine Skiing World Cup takes place. There are also two important ski routes: Sellaronda and Giro sciistico della First World War Ski tour.
