Description
Spend a great day exploring the best of the Dolomites Mountains. Visit the enchanting Cortina d'Ampezzo and take a pleasant walk around Lake Misurina with its incredible stunning views.
Enjoy a full-day tour from Venice to the Dolomites Mountains, a Unesco World Heritage. Our tour departs from the city of Venice in the morning and takes you through scenic roads to the famous Cortina d'Ampezzo, a true paradise for sports and nature lovers that welcomes guests with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, all against the backdrop of breathtaking views.
The resort will host the next Olympic Winter Games in 2026. After the visit to the wonderful town and a walk through the most prestigious and well-known street of the Dolomites, the Corso Italia pedestrian area, we will drive through the panoramic road of Passo Tre Croci to Lake Misurina where you will have enough time to walk around the gorgeous lake and have lunch at one of the restaurants serving local food.
In the summer you can also rent a small boat to get around the lake or ride the panoramic chairlift to the Col de Varda Viewpoint. From the Lake, you can admire some of the most famous and beautiful peaks of the Dolomites and the Three Peaks of Lavaredo, considered to be the most striking rocks of the Dolomite mountains, famous all over the world.
Then, on the way back we will make a photo stop at Lake Auronzo where you can walk on the dam and sometimes see the water rushing through gates. This tour will end at the meeting point in Venice in the evening but the memories will last a lifetime!
