Dolomites

Holidaying in the UNESCO World Heritage of Humanity site

Because of their extraordinary beauty, the Dolomites have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. Our Residence Costes is located right at the centre of these natural treasures, the ideal place to spend an unforgettable holiday surrounded by these impressive giants made of rock. The luminous rocky faces of Cima Cunturines, La Varella, Settsass and Lagazuoi rise above curvy mountain meadows and offer an unforgettable natural sight. In the summer and winter alike, the enchanting natural landscape offers the possibility to enjoy many different sports or just to relax and forget the stress of everyday life.

Cycling

Bike tours

The roads full of bends of the Dolomite passes are some of the favourite legs of the "Giro d'Italia" bicycle race, renowned throughout the world for the famous "Maratona dles Dolomites" marathon. You definitely have an advantage over professional cyclists though: you can fully enjoy the natural scenery! For families and those who love cycling holidays, Alta Badia offers simple bike tours in the marvellous world of the Dolomites. Mountain bike lovers will also find a real paradise here: they will be able to choose from forest roads, military trails and specific mountain bike routes.

Hiking and mountaineering

Adventures in the Dolomites

Gentle slopes and impressive mountain tops meet and create a haven for hikers, mountaineers and climbers alike. Discovering the marvellous Fanes-Sennes-Braies Natural Park or walking on the flowering meadows of the Pralongià plateau is an unforgettable experience. From Piz Sorega, a breathtaking view of the majestic mountain tops of the Alta Badia Dolomites opens up before you. If you look southwards, you will be able to admire the snow-clad "Marmolada" mountain group gleaming in the sun. Famous summits such as those of the "Sella" mountain group, of the "Sassongher", the "Sasso di Santa Croce" and of the "La Varella" are so vivid you feel you could almost touch them. Climbing enthusiasts can come in close contact with the rocky mountain faces of over 200 routes on the Sass Dlacia climbing wall.

One of the favourite destinations for hikers is the "Santa Croce" sanctuary located in a green space at the foot of the Dolomites.
