Holidays in the Dolomites

The around 250 million years old Dolomites are a mountain range of the Alps, largely consisting of sedimentary rocks and limestone. Today, they are characterised by a varied scenery of rugged rocks and smooth alpine meadows.

Not for nothing, the Dolomites – named after the French geologist Déodat de Dolomieu – are part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 2009. The unique flora and fauna contribute essentially to the monumental beauty of the mountain range. Important, however, is the nature and landscape protection enabling also future generations to enjoy this paradise.

Picturesque scenery at any season

Theatre of war during World War One, the Dolomites have become a world-famous hiking and excursion destination during the last decades – loved by the resident people in the same way as by guests coming from faraway places. When the first flowers blossom and the landscape becomes a sea of flowers in spring, the first mountain lovers begin to look for the breezing heights.

In summer, numerous hikers, climbers and bikers explore the Dolomites. In the fresh mountain air, you can completely forget the stress and bustle of everyday life. Fixed rope routes, high alpine tours and pasture hikes – the Eggental, Seiser Alm, Gröden, Alta Badia, Mt. Kronplatz or the Hochpustertal are the perfect place for outdoor activities during your summer holidays.
