Additional Information
In the heart of the Italian Dolomites, the Alta Badia region boasts some of
the most spectacular alpine scenery as well as a reputation for excellent
cuisine. The village of San Cassiano is no stranger to either and sits just
15km, as the crow flies, due West of Cortina d'Ampezzo (or 30km by road and
the Falzarego Pass). Around 500m in altitude above the village lies a large
area of beautiful alpine meadow, dotted with traditional wooden mountain huts
and the most amazing panoramic views. At some points you have a 360-degree
vista that spans from the Austrian Alps to the North to the Marmolada range
to the South (the highest peaks in the Dolomites), with the Fanes Natural
Park to the East and the Sella mountain range and Gardena Pass to the West -
all stunning views in their own rights but when combined it's almost
mind-blowing!
