Cortina d'Ampezzo

Few towns in Veneto have a history as closely tied to winter sport as Cortina d'Ampezzo. Set in the Ampezzo Valley, it is encircled by the dramatic limestone peaks of the Dolomites, including the Tofane group and Monte Cristallo. The town hosted the 1956 Winter Olympics, an event that brought international attention to its ski slopes, ice sports and mountain infrastructure; it will also stage events during the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Games. Cortina remains part of the Ladin cultural area, whose language and Alpine traditions distinguish this corner of the Italian Alps.
