Dolomites Farm was born out of the desire to go back in time. We wanted to raise these wonderful animals and rediscover the work of the farmer. Working the land while also offering experiences to our guests seemed like the perfect combination. From this came the idea of alpaca walks, where their slow and relaxing pace allows you to admire our magnificent mountains. In addition to this activity, we work with the wool from our animals to create clothing, yarn, quilts, pillows, and much more.

Plans is the name of the first part of the Plans-Frara gondola lift that from Colfosco takes you up to the Gardena pass at the foot of Mount Cir, on the edge of the Puez - Odle natural park. In addition to being a particularly important connection system for the Sellaronda, both in winter for skiers and in summer for mountain bikers, the gondola lift takes you to a first-rate panoramic point: right at the arrival of the system you can see the peaks del Cir and on the opposite side the majestic Sella Group.

The late Gothic church of Colfosco, with the Sella Massif in the background, is a popular photo motif of the Dolomites.

The parish church of St. Vigil was first mentioned in 1419. In the following years it was restored and expanded several times.

Particularly interesting are the neo-Gothic lobby on the outer facade with a grooved and beveled pointed arch portal, the bulbous spire and the church altar. This dates from the late 19th century and is from the local artist Johann Valentin - Badia. In the middle niche of the altar there is an 18th century picture of the Virgin Mary and on the sides there are the statues of St. Vigilius and St. Kassian. For safety reasons, the valuable statue of St. Vigilius has been replaced with a copy.
