View All DealsHolidays to the Dolomites allow you to discover hidden beauties in one of the most spectacular mountain ranges in the world. This is a land of dramatic peaks, rich valleys and secluded lakes.
The Dolomites offer an impressive landscape. The dramatic spikes of the mountain range make it easy to see why the Dolomites are widely thought of as among the most spectacular mountain ranges in the world. In 2009, the area was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. At sunrise and sunset, the changing light causes the mountains to turn pink and purple. The locals call this phenomenon ‘enrosadira.’ While visiting, you can spend your time walking through the valleys and beside hidden lakes, or take a lift up into the mountains to see the world from an entirely different perspective.
The Dolomites aren’t short of natural wonders. Every year, walkers, hikers, cyclists and climbers descend on the Dolomites to explore some of the hidden – and not so hidden – beauty spots. The walking routes are well marked and kept clear, so whether you're looking for a long hike or a short wander you can just relax and soak in the mountain scenery. Take a slow stroll through flower-perfumed fields, or negotiate the area’s high-altitude paths – known as the alte vie. Whatever you decide, you’re sure to see some beautiful views.
The area has a fascinating history that’s resulted in its rich cultural mix. The Dolomites used to be part of Austria, but after WW1 it became part of Italy. Historically, this area’s natives were the Ladins. There is still a large Ladin population today and you’re likely to hear Ladin, Italian and Austrian all spoken in the same area. Perhaps even more excitingly, you’ll be able to find an abundance of all three cuisines in the local eateries.
