EXPERIENCE CORTINA
Sport, Food & Soul. All year round.
EXPERIENCE SUNRISE ON THE TOFANA MOUNTAINTOP
Experience the world waking up, the rays of sunlight that break through the darkness, the force of nature dissolving the night and revealing a dream-like landscape.
Authentic and simple, this spectacular natural event will connect you in an intimate and touching way to the splendid landscape of the Dolomites.
This excursion begins by taking the “Freccia nel Cielo” Tofana cable car to the Tofana mountaintop, at 3,244 metres above sea level, still in the dead of night. Here you can admire the silhouettes of the peaks and await the break of dawn; the mountains and valleys below you will turn golden and a gentle musical accompaniment will make the atmosphere feel even more fairytale-like.
You can experience this sunset unaccompanied both in summer and winter (please note, however, that in winter the cable car will stop in Ra Valles): simply purchase a cable car ticket at the “Freccia nel Cielo” Tofana cable car station.
After dawn, you can enjoy a delicious breakfast at the bar on the Tofana mountaintop and then choose whether to explore the area even further by skiing, ciaspolando (walking in special snow shoes), strolling along the trails or returning to the base on the cable car. Upon request, Cortina’s Alpine Guides can also organise trails (please book the guides in advance by contacting +39 0436 868505 or emailing info@guidecortina.com).
