La Cooperativa di Cortina

Cortina d’Ampezzo is one of the best towns to use as your base for exploring the Dolomites! Known as a playground for the wealthy, there’s plenty to do in the town that won’t break the bank too. I’ve included several restaurants that won’t break the bank as well as a few worth a splurge. There’s a ton of great hiking and skiing around Cortina, including some without needing a car. This guide is more focused on hiking- I don't include ski runs here. On this guide, you’ll get: - the major sights with notes on what you’re seeing and if they need advanced booking - an interactive map to help navigate you to each spot - 5 of the major hiking areas or views, along with advice on how to get there - 7 restaurants at varying price points, along with a breakfast spot - 2 shops you’ll want to see - 1 3-star hotel

With its charming streets, stunning mountain vistas, and vibrant après-ski scene, Cortina d'Ampezzo offers a perfect blend of outdoor adventure and refined mountain culture.

Ready to discover this astounding region? This guide is based on my trip and what I did when I visited this area. I came here during summer, but most of the activities can be done all year round. If you are looking for skiing suggestion, this guide is not for you. My friends and I traveled by car, so the guide has been written accordingly. You can still find this guide interesting if you plan to bike around or come by camper or caravan as there are also suggestions of what to do and where to eat. If you plan to use public transportation, this is not covered in this guide. This guide contains activities for 3 full days: from Pragser Wildsee Lake (Lago di Braies) to Marmolada, from 3 Peaks (3 Cime di Lavaredo) to Misurina Lake. At the end you will also find a link to useful tour for looking for other trail suggestions o to build up your own itinerary.
