Summer

Enchanting panoramas, uncontaminated nature and a revitalising oxygen intake within this corner of paradise. Let yourself be tempted: spend your holidays in the heart of the Dolomites and relax and regenerate, both spiritually and mentally. Discover the woods, take part in a vast variety of sports, go shopping and delight in the typical dishes.

 
Hiking
A highly scenic and level pedestrian road runs through the village for 6-7 kilometres. The track is paved and well lit and is mainly suitable for children and elderly people. A wide network of trails, accessible even to push chairs, runs across the valley and offers the opportunity for a large number of easy naturalistic and cultural walks.

Trekking enthusiasts will find a lot of marked trails of different rating, from easy rambles to long, demanding walks or even the Vie Ferrate (technical climbing routes equipped with iron cables for support). The trails will lead you to discover the natural beauties of some of the most famous mountain groups of the Dolomites: Antelao, second in height only to the Marmolada; the Sorapis whose opposite face reflects into the lake of Misurina; the Pelmo, crossroads for the Valle del Boite, the Val Fiorentina and the Val Zoldana; the Marmarole ridge, sung by Giosuè Carducci in his famous "Ode to Cadore".

Expert guides are available if you wish to be escorted.

 
Historical routes
Even without any mountaineering expertise, you may still enjoy a short hike from one mountain inn to the other, along the famous Alte Vie (high level hiking routes) of the Dolomites and visit sites rich in historical interest as the burial site of the Man of Mondeval (5000 BC) or the dinosaurs' prints dating back to 200 million years ago.

 
Mountain bike
Some summer paths are accessible to mountain-bikes, provided nature and other hikers are respected.

One itinerary not to be missed starts from San Vito di Cadore; ascend to the start of the chairlift at San Marco; take this to Refuge Scotter; from here continue to the end of the forest track and then descend pleasantly for about 6 km.

Another interesting itinerary leads is the so-called "Tre Laghi Tour", included in the 15 mountain bike itineraries in and around Cortina d'Ampezzo.
