  What to do in the Dolomites

  With such a picturesque backdrop, it’s no surprise that the Dolomites have become such a popular destination for wellness retreats and spa vacations. There are many incredibly designed resorts around the Dolomites so if you’re looking for stand-out accommodation, there is plenty to choose from.

  Hire a rowboat on the picturesque lakes

  As well as jagged peaks and soaring mountains, the Dolomites also feature some of, arguably, the most breathtaking and crystal-clear lakes on Earth. What makes them even more striking is the contrast in color – the green hills and the azure waters are memorable in every sense. Lake Molveno lies at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites in Trentino. You can hire a boat here and take to the waters. Whether it’s a rowboat, motor or paddle boat, spend the afternoon embracing the reflections on the lake. ​​Lago di Braies is also worth visiting and rowing out on – equally beautiful and romantic.

  Touch the sky on your ride up the cable car

  A project that was built between 1963 and 1965, the Dolomites cable car lift offers unparalleled views of the landscape from the highest peak – Marmalada. From the top, a 360-degree view can be admired, often accompanied by a layer of untouched snow and bright blue skies. Among the cable car, the area surrounding the Dolomites is well serviced by public transport and hiking trails, so you can comfortably explore on your own, or with a private guide which we can organize.

  Take to the ski slopes in winter

  During the winter months – between late November and early April – the Dolomite mountains and alps become a haven for skiers and winter sports enthusiasts. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this area is enjoyed for leisure, yet preserved as best as possible. There are various resorts – around 12 in total – but arguably the best and largest in this region is Val Gardena (Gröden). Logistics including ski passes, rentals and lifts are reliable, and the region is enjoyed by both locals and tourists alike.

  Photograph the Pale Mountains

  The landscape of the Dolomites is arguably one of the most dramatic in all of Italy. It’s a region that attracts thousands of photographers – both professional and amatueur. The sharp mountain peaks and the verdant forests below make for the perfect shot. Although imagery of the Dolomites is usually flawless, conditions in the Alps and among the mountains can be tricky for photographers and snowstorms and strong winds are common during the winter months, so make sure you are prepared when it comes to your camera equipment and clothing.
