The Dolomites, which extend through the renowned provinces of Belluno, South Tyrol and Trentino all in the north east of Italy, are magnificent.

They are made of dolomite rock and they usually turn a pink colour in the late afternoon, an unusual phenomena which is known to most Italians as enrosadira.

This effect is wonderful even to the people who love flatlands. Most importantly they present Europe’s most excellent skiing, as well as the world-famous resort Cortina d’Ampezzo.
