Astronomical Observatory

Cortina

Located at Col Druscié at an altitude of 1778 m, the Observatory managed by the Cortina Astronomical Association houses a 40 cm diameter Ritchey-Chretienda telescope and a 28 cm Schmidt Cassegrain telescope, used for the visual observation of the deep sky, planets, the Moon and the Sun, and the imaging of galaxies for the search of supernovas, thanks to the very low light pollution of the privileged location.

The Observatory can be reached by the Freccia nel Cielo cableway during opening hours in the summer and winter seasons or by a short walk from Pié Tofana along the Planet Path and the Universe Path.
