Odles Slow Dolomites

Funes and Luson – two authentic valleys in the UNESCO Natural Heritage Site

Quietly but profoundly, Val di Funes and Luson in South Tyrol are embarking on a new journey together, creating a destination with a shared vision: Odles Slow Dolomites. Authenticity, awareness, and joie de vivre are at its heart. Two idyllic valleys united by a love of nature, living culture, and a desire for peace and tranquility.

In a world that is moving ever faster, time becomes the true luxury. In Val di Funes and Luson, the days follow a different rhythm: between the majestic Odle mountains and the profile of Sasso di Putia, you learn to rediscover the value of calm. Breathe in the pure mountain air, rediscover the authentic flavors of local products, and enjoy sincere and profound encounters.

Unspoiled nature and protected natural park

At the bottom of the two valleys lies the Puez-Odle Nature Park. Covering an area of over 10,000 hectares, it is a place where nature sets the tone. Two worlds meet here: the gentle, green grasslands of the Funes and Luson alpine pastures and the pale, rugged towers of the Odle and Sass de Putia mountains. It is not only a protected area for flora and fauna, but also a popular place for relaxation and direct contact with nature. A network of well-marked trails invites visitors to actively experience the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Dolomites.

Located at the foot of the Dolomites, Val di Funes is renowned for its breathtaking peaks, including the iconic Odle group, and for its commitment to sustainable tourism. Luson, with its rolling meadows and dense forests, is an idyllic place for those seeking peace and a deep connection with nature. Both regions are rich in tradition and offer authentic experiences of relaxation, ideal for hiking, exploring the alpine landscape, and immersing yourself in the eternal charm of the Dolomites.
