Colfosco straddles the head of Val Badia beneath the Sella Group in South Tyrol, a position that has shaped it as a high-altitude Ladin settlement and mountain crossroads. At 1,645 metres, it is the highest village in the Alta Badia area. The jagged Sella massif rises to the south, while the Puez-Odle Nature Park begins immediately north, placing the village within the UNESCO-listed Dolomites. Ladin remains central to local identity alongside Italian and German, reflected in the settlement’s three names. Winter lifts link Colfosco with Alta Badia and the Sella Ronda circuit, while warmer months bring walkers and climbers to the surrounding passes and rock walls.
