Discover Cortina d’Ampezzo

THE DESTINATION

Imagine a huge, almost perfect natural amphitheater, enclosed by the silver walls of the Croda da Lago, the Tofane, the Pomagagnon, the Cristallo and the Sorapiss. Add to it the dark green woods that cover the rounded reliefs at its feet and the wide, lighter meadows that slide down to the bottom. Then throw a handful of houses in. Here is Cortina and its home, the Conca Ampezzana, an unmissable destination for mountain lovers.

NATURE
