Maybe this is why it was granted the designation of a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2008. The Dolomites are home to some of the most breathtaking ski resorts in the world, where natural beauty and high luxury are seamlessly intertwined. Comprising multitudes of villages, valleys, and towns ranging from the sophisticated (almost cosmopolitan) elegance of Cortina d’Ampezzo to the hidden gems of Val Gardena and Alta Badia, the Dolomites perfect that unique blend of adventure and elegance we crave. Here, winter sport is a lifestyle, not a hobby, and hospitality is pushing the boundaries of innovation. The region boasts 12 ski resorts and a massive network of more than 400 lifts and almost 800 miles of ski runs, including the legendary Sella Ronda.
