Why visit Cortina d'Ampezzo?

Cortina d'Ampezzo anchors the spectacular Ampezzo Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage region where dramatic vertical limestone walls frame an upscale alpine valley. Climbers and skiers flock to legendary terrain flanking the Tofana di Mezzo and the jagged Cinque Torri, tracing routes through history that once served as World War I frontlines. Beyond the peaks, the town centers on Corso Italia, a pedestrian boulevard lined with high-end boutiques, antique shops, and traditional pasticcerias serving local specialties.

Gastronomy in the Ampezzo valley reflects a distinct fusion of Venetian and Tyrolean heritages. Traditional mountain rifugios—accessible by cable car or strenuous hikes up to areas like Falzarego Pass—serve hearty casunziei, half-moon beet-filled pasta dressed in melted butter and poppy seeds, alongside robust plates of canederli dumplings. After a day traversing the soaring peaks of the Dolomiti Superski domain or hiking the trails beneath Monte Cristallo, evenings wind down with glasses of local Südtiroler wine paired with artisanal alpine cheeses.
