San Vigilio Dolomites, land of nature and hospitality
For a special holiday in the mountain, characterized by ski, trekking and nature, choose San Vigilio Dolomites: you will discover the uniqueness of the Ladin culture, and you will feel like a guest, and not like a tourist!

Here are some interesting points of interest in the area
- The area comprises six villages, three of which belong to the municipality of Marebbe and three to that of San Martino in Badia.
- The area is home to two nature parks, both of which have been declared 'UNESCO Dolomites Heritage'. The Fanes-Senes-Braies Nature Park is known for its fauna, while the Puez-Odle Nature Park offers a wide variety of geological formations, illustrating the effects of tectonic upheavals and erosion typical of the Dolomites and the Alpine arc in general.
- Both municipalities have been certified according to the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council) standard. The destination is the first in South Tyrol and the third in Italy to be awarded this certification.
- One of the villages, Lungiarü, has been classified as a 'Mountaineers' Village', i.e. a small mountain village that respects natural boundaries and promotes harmony between social and economic life and the surrounding environment.
- There are around 650 km of hiking trails, ranging from easy walks around the villages to more challenging hikes in the nature parks, which offer breathtaking views and the possibility of reaching more than 25 peaks. Various themed walks allow you to discover the many facets of the local culture, its stories and legends.
- More than 600 km of mountain bike trails, of which around 22 km of trails at Plan de Corones offer thrills for bikers of all levels. The entire area has been certified as an 'Approved Bike Area', the highest standard for mountain bike regions.
- The area offers direct access to the Plan de Corones/Kronplatz ski area, with 119 km of ski slopes and 32 lifts. In addition, it is possible to reach other Dolomiti Superski ski areas with convenient bus and train connections.
- A large part of the population speaks Ladin as their first language, the original idiom of South Tyrol, with more than two thousand years of history. The Ladin Museum Ciastel de Tor in San Martino in Badia collects the special features of the Ladin people of the Dolomites.
