San Martino di Castrozza

The landscape of the Dolomites, the liveliness and elegance of a first-class tourist resort, the fascination of ancient historical centres, a deeply-rooted tradition of hospitality, the natural riches of the Natural Park, modern tourist facilities- all this makes San Martino di Castrozza and Primiero Valley the ideal destination for top-quality holidays in Summer, Spring and also Autumn. The residential area, with typical Alpine-style architecture, keeps only few traces of the old medieval monastery that used to host travellers and pilgrims. The resort is at the foot of the Pale Mountains, in a large sunny meadowland surrounded by thick conifer woods with countless winding trails and paths for walks. Winter holidays in San Martino di Castrozza offer the thrill of skiing in the snow and the excitement of going shopping and enjoy shows in typical clubs and seasons full of top international events. The ski-lift facilities are nearby (easily reached thanks to the free ski-bus service) that take tourists to the 45-km Carosello della Malghe and Colverde ski slopes. Near the mountain foot, on the large meadow of Pra`delle Nasse, you can find some winding circuits for cross-country skiing.
