Some of the most beautiful paths in Cortina d’Ampezzo

In the summer, walks, hikes, vie ferrate, mountain-bike trails, and the most picturesque mountainscapes can be reached by the Tofana chairlifts!

The Tofana area is particularly suitable for summer hikes due to the varied and beautiful environment, rich in flora and fauna, and for the presence of important structural remains from the First World War that make it a favourite destination for those who love historical-naturalistic excursions.
