The Dolomites are one of the favourite travel destinations by all mountain lovers, because of the wonderful landscapes that they contain (it is no coincidence that in 2009 they have been declared World Heritage Site by the Unesco) and because of the great number of activities that you can do there, both in winter and in summer. Falcade, in the Valle del Biois, is a small but famous village, which attracts Italian and foreign tourists in winter as well as in summer, and it is famous above all for the wonderful place where it rises. The Valle del Biois, indeed, is considered as one of the most beautiful valleys in the Dolomites: set among Marmolada, Monte Civetta and the Pala group, in other words some of the most famous and fascinating mountains of Italy, the valley is a feast for the eyes and a landmark for all those who have a passion for mountains and climbing, who start from here to explore the surrounding mountains. Moreover, in Falcade you can enjoy one of the best views on the Dolomites: no wonder that many tourists choose this little mountain village to spend their holidays.

In winter Falcade is the ideal destination to enjoy a skiing holiday: those who love alpine skiing can ski in a wonderful setting and have fun thanks to the equipped areas, to the modern ski-lift facilities and the ski slopes that are always perfectly well-kept and covered with snow, while if you prefer cross-country ski there are miles of trails among the woods and other spaces of the village. No matter if you are expert or beginner skiers, in Falcade you can find the trail that best suits your needs, and if you want to improve or you wish to initiate your children to skiing you can address to ski schools, which offer different kinds of courses, for children and adults, group or private lessons. Besides skiing you can choose other winter sports, like snowboarding and ice skating, but Falcade is perfect even if you cannot go beyond sledges and bobs, or if you simply would like to spend a carefree weekend walking on snow or organising a snowball fight with your friends. Last but not least, the village is appreciated not only by sportspeople, but also by those who only expect one thing from a holiday: relaxation. Crouched down in front of the fireplace of a picturesque chalet, or comfortably sitting in the sun on the terrace of a mountain hut while admiring the mountains covered with snow, in Falcade you can enjoy the most relaxing holiday.

And if back at home you miss this beautiful village and you cannot wait until the following winter to visit it again, do not worry: Falcade is perfect also to spend your summer holidays. In its mountains, indeed, you can go climbing, trekking, riding, mountain biking or sport fishing in a setting that in summer is as breathtaking as in winter. Among Falcade mountains, moreover, you can seek out some freshness far away from the hot days that make the cities red-hot and breathe clean air, alternating pleasant walks in nature and nibbles with typical products in a picturesque hut.
