An introduction to some of the most beautiful peaks of the region.
A journey taking us through the rolling hills of the Marca Trevigiana up to the mountainous areas of sun-drenched magic, encountering art and nature, history and legend.
FIRST AND SECOND DAY
Treviso
The first thing which strikes the visitor to Treviso is the omnipresent equilibrium of the city, with the calm flowing of its waters, and the procession of ancient palazzi and weeping willows reflected on the shimmering emerald surface of its canals.
The city, demarcated by the rivers Sile and Cagnan, offers in a certain sense the 'ideal stroll' through the cultural values of the region, a long way from the concept of mass tourism yet at the same time providing numerous marvels of nature and art: a tranquil and stress-free approach to the riches of the region.

THIRD DAY
Feltre
We move on to Feltre, where we encounter breathtaking scenery: situated in a sunny valley in the Valbelluna, east of the river Piave and at the foothills of the Dolomites and the Feltrine peaks.
This is the largest centre after the capital Belluno.
Venice gave it its present aspect, as repayment for the loyalty demonstrated during the Wars of the Leauge of Cambrai, when the city was razed to the ground.

FOURTH AND FIFTH 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.

SIXTH 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.

SEVENTH AND EIGHTH DAY
Cadore
Cadore promises beauty wherever the eye falls.
An ancient region full of history and the natural beauty of the massifs, valleys and lakes present.
The area includes the most widely-known tourist destinations of Auronzo, Misurina, Pieve (birthplace of the painter Titian), and Calalzo, all provided with modern facilities for sports, excursions in the stunning landscape, cultural events and much more.
