The Friulian Dolomites are the most western mountain area of Friuli Venezia Giulia and include the Val Cellina, the Valle del Tagliamento and Val Tramontina valleys. The high degree of wilderness that they still retain means makes them the most untouched area of the entire Dolomites massif, and they are now a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The Friulan Dolomites are a paradise for hikers and cross-country skiers, fans of Nordic walking, climbing and ice climbing. With their skyline that makes you think of a series of churches with their bell towers and the colours of the sunset reflecting on the rock, they are a favourite with photographers. Well-kept paths and trails allow you to cross the eponymous natural park or follow a loop of trails which go from chalet to chalet.
The pinnacle in Val Montanaia is a challenge for even the fittest trekkers, while lovers of Nordic walking will find equipped trails with specific signs.
Even the foothills area is there to be explored, with its valleys carved by rivers between spectacular rocks, where you can discover caves and emerald green lakes, visit typical small villages among the most beautiful in Italy, where you will taste gastronomic specialities made with the highest quality produce.
