Civilisation and nature, land and sky
An itinerary through a natural paradise of awe-inspiring mountains, among the birth of civilisations and magnificent views.
Belluno, Cortina and the Bellunese Dolomites National Park
FIRST DAY
Belluno
We first visit the urban heart of this mountainous region, known to the Celts as belo-dunum or “city of splendour”.
Belluno represents a sort of self-contained world within the magic of this alpine region.
Of ancient origin (it was also a Roman municipium), today’s city manifests the traces of its Renaissance era and the period of Venetian rule, together with invaluable Medieval testimony.

SECOND DAY
Cortina d'Ampezzo
We move on to the north of the alpine zone of the Veneto, to vist another important town: Cortina D’Ampezzo.
Cortina wears the crown of tourist locations within the mountains, being the most dreamed of destination throughout the world.

THIRD DAY
Bellunese Dolomites National Park
To conclude this itinerary we move into the unspoilt natural wonders of the Bellunese Dolomites National Park: 32,000 hectares of stunning views and natural splendours.
Here we can admire the vast range of natural environments and the magnificent fauna: here we are in the domain of the golden eagle, an almost mythical creature owing to its elegance, nobility and rarity.
