Your Dolomites adventure starts with a convenient pickup from Venice's Piazzale Roma, a spacious square in the heart of the city. Settle in for a scenic 90-minute drive to the charming historic town of Pieve di Cadore. Take in breathtaking views from a picturesque vantage point overlooking the serene Lake Centro Cadore.
Next, we journey to Auronzo, where a captivating photo opportunity awaits at the lake's dam. Witness the power of nature (weather permitting!) as water cascades through the dam's gates.
Then, prepare to be mesmerized by Lake Misurina, rightfully dubbed the "Pearl of the Dolomites." Spend ample time exploring this stunning lake, perhaps enjoying a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant, savoring the region's culinary delights. During the summer months, consider a relaxing boat trip across the lake or ascend to the Col de Varda Viewpoint via a panoramic chairlift (additional cost applies) for even more spectacular vistas.
Our journey continues to Cortina d'Ampezzo, a prestigious village chosen to host the 2026 Winter Olympics. Stroll along Corso Italia, the Dolomites' most renowned pedestrian street, soaking in the atmosphere of this elegant town.
Finally, your unforgettable Dolomites day concludes with a return drop-off at Piazzale Roma in Venice.
