Calfosch - Kolfuschg - Colfosco: Calfosch - Impianti Colfosco Spa

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.

Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol is renowned across Italy for the Dolomites, whose pale limestone massifs define much of its eastern skyline. This autonomous region follows the upper Adige basin, from vineyards and apple orchards around Bolzano to high valleys crossed by glaciers and Alpine passes. Its character is distinctly multilingual: Italian and German are official languages, while Ladin remains in use in several Dolomite valleys. Medieval castles, Tyrolean customs and Italian city life meet in a borderland historically connected with Tyrol. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of the central Alps connects regionally.

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
