From Bolzano - Private Tour by car: THE BEST OF THE DOLOMITES IN JUST ONE DAY

We will cross the Ega Valley that begins at Bolzano and runs eastward between the Rosengarten and the Latemar mountains. This road was built in 1894 when the territory was part of the Austro Hungarian Empire. We will stop at Carezza Lake, the most beautiful lake of the western Dolomites: 30 minutes of staying with a walk around the lake if you want.

Near the Pass we will see the historical “Grand Hotel Carezza”, built in 1893, the first luxury hotel in the Dolomites which hosted very important guests like the Empress Sissi, Winston Churchill, Agatha Christie. From the Costalunga Pass we will reach the Fassa Valley in Trentino: we will pass through the towns of Vigo di Fassa and Canazei to arrive under the imposing peaks of the Sella Group.
