Corvara in Badia - Corvara: Alta Badia - Boé
Corvara in Badia straddles a junction of the Val Badia and Campolongo Pass routes in Alta Badia, a position that has made it a central mountain resort in the Dolomites. The village lies beneath the Sella Group, whose broad high plateau rises to Piz Boè, its highest summit. Corvara is integrated into the Sella Ronda, the lift-linked circuit that runs around the Sella massif and connects several Dolomite valleys. Forested slopes, open pasture and limestone peaks set the local scale. Alta Badia is part of South Tyrol’s Ladin-speaking area, where Ladin remains an important element of local identity alongside Italian and German. The Dolomites have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009.

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.
