Objevte krásy Dolomiti Alta Badia

This easy circular hike between La Villa and Badia goes just a short distance along the floor of the valley, partly through meadows, partly through woodland, from farm to farm, with little variation in altitude and lovely views of the beautiful "viles" of Alta Badia.

The "viles" are settlements that were built in the form of a circle so that each settlement was surrounded by its farmland.

The Dolomites, with the mountains of Sas dla Crusc on one side and the Pütia on the other one, provide the frame for the snow-covered meadows, old barns and farmsteads with the gardens of the 'viles', the traditional rural settlements in the oldest part of La Val. During this simple walk through the old farmsteads of the village, you will feel enveloped by the still living tradition and culture of the village. In addition, on your way you will see the little church of St. Barbara, the symbol of the village, and the bell tower of the old church of La Val.

Along the trail, there are two agritourisms, 'Ciablun' and 'Lüch de Survisc', where you can stop to savour the authentic and genuine dishes of the Ladin cuisine.

This circular hike in Badia takes visitors into the very heart of the unique natural landscape of the Armentara meadows.
You cross snow-covered meadows in an incredible beauty. Above the tree line extend the alpine pastures, testimony to the work of man. Farmers here have shaped the landscape while still maintaining its equilibrium.

This hike will take you from San Cassiano to the Malga Valparola alp - closed during summer 2024, a historic site, where the mineral extracted in Livinallongo was transported, melted and transformed into iron. The ruins of the melting furnaces are now abandoned and in pieces. Today, only the German hut’s name “Eisenöfenalm“ (Hut of the Iron Furnaces), serves as a reminder of the economic prosperity, now long gone but once enjoyed by this extraordinarily picturesque place.

During this hike you can enjoy the fresh air of the forest of La Val up to the Hospice Santa Croce, from where you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the peaks of the Dolomites.

Varied mountain hike in the Nature Park Fanes-Senes-Braies starting from San Cassiano. Admire the stunning views from the Forcela dl Lech notch, looking north over the entire Fanes mountain range. Turn your gaze westwards to the imposing Conturines peak. East lie the rock faces of the Fanis group and to the south the Lagazuoi plateau and the homonymous lake.

The gentle hike through the Dolomites winter landscape winds at the foot of the majestic peaks Sella, Cir and Sassongher.

Walking along the Pisciadú river, crossing snow-covered meadows and silent woods you arrive at the foot of Pisciadú waterfalls. In winter the waterfalls form a spectacular ice fall.

The Sella massif, in all its grandeur, also offers numerous hiking routes for those who wish to experience the mountains at a relatively high altitude but without necessarily having to tackle via ferrata or overly technical sections. You will start this excursion from the scenic Vallon area at an altitude of more than 2500 metres, from which you will enjoy recognizing the majestic surrounding peaks. As you descend, you will cross both stretches of grassland and slabs of stone and scree. Of course, you will not be able to pass up a stop at Lake Lech de Boé to admire its unique turquoise waters. In the final part of the route, you will reach the cool forest near the stream, before reaching the villages at the bottom of the valley.

Walk from Corvara along the river Rü Tort to La Villa. Quite walk through woods and meadows. 

Walk from Corvara along the river Rü Tort to La Villa, easy walk through the woods. 

Sassongher, Corvara's emblem, towers above the town and the neighbouring Colfosco, sheer and unapprochable. From its summit, enjoy an exciting view in the round.

The Puez-Odle Nature Park, which has been part of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009, boasts a fascinating geology. All the rock strata typical of the Dolomites can be found there. The hike, which starts in Colfosco at the southern edge of the Puez-Odle Nature Park, takes you via the Stella Alpina valley and the Puez Plateau right into the heart of the Nature Park. It offers both views of, and insight into, the landscape and history of the Dolomites.

Walk, breathe, gather and learn

Alta Badia, in collaboration with Etifor, has identified the Masisti Forest at Passo Campolongo as the ideal location for creating the Food Forest. Thanks to the WOWnature project, the reforestation process began in 2020 after the damage caused by the Vaia storm. In this forest, which is open to visitors during the summer months, a rich biodiversity has developed, and you can now find delightful surprises, including blueberries, raspberries, wild strawberries, juniper berries, and elderberries. Visitors can create their own self-guided paths to discover what Mother Nature has to offer. Along the trail, informational panels reveal the secrets of the forest and provide tips on how the herbs and fruits gathered are used in traditional Ladin cuisine.

Extremely enjoyable excursion which, from San Cassiano/Piz Sorega, crosses the breathtaking meadows of Pralongiá, renowned for their profusion of flowers.The panorama here is spectacular, stretching from the Lavarela to the Lagazuoi summits, from the Marmolada to the Grup dl Sela, from Puez to Pütia and looking to the north, right up to the glaciers of the Central Alps on their border with Austria.

Piz Boé, in the Sella Group, stands at 3,152 meters and is one of the most accessible peaks over 3,000 meters, making it a popular destination for hikers. However, it's important to note that the ascent from Corvara and the return to Passo Gardena, as outlined in this route, are quite demanding. While climbing equipment isn't required, sure-footedness and mountain experience are essential for tackling this hike. The route primarily traverses rocky terrain, with sections of scree and an equipped trail. As you ascend, the landscape changes, offering breathtaking views of some of the most iconic Dolomite peaks, including the Marmolada, Civetta, Catinaccio, and Sassolungo. At the summit, you'll find the small Capanna Piz Fassa hut, where you can spend the night. However, the true reward is the stunning panorama that only an altitude of over 3,000 meters can provide. The descent involves crossing part of the massif before reaching Gardena Pass.

Walk from Corvara along the river to Hotel Bel Sit, passing through Pescosta to Colfosco and back to Corvara.

This easy hike with little variation in altitude goes along gravel roads and wide trails across a high plateau typical of the Dolomites, with Alpine pasture land and inviting mountain huts. The panoramic views are amazing, ranging from the local Dolomites to the Marmolada glacier and the Austrian Alps.
