In the territory of Belluno lies most of the mountain ranges of the Dolomites, equal to about 70% of the most famous mountains of northeastern Italy: an immense natural heritage that the whole world envies us.
To preserve an area of particular environmental interest within this area, in 1990 the National Park of the Belluno Dolomites was established: within it there are several species of flora and fauna, sometimes endemic.
We are in the north-western part of Valbelluna: the heights range from gentle reliefs to peaks over 2500 meters, the environments range from the meadows of the valley floor to the dizzying rocky walls through meadows, woods and forests.
The mountain groups that fall within the territory of the park are those of the Feltre Alps, Pizzon-Feruch-Monti del Sole, Schiara-Pelf and Talvena. The highest peak is Mount Schiara, 2565 meters.
There are 15 municipalities in the province of Belluno that fall within the National Park, even if the towns inside are few: here man is still the guest, it is nature to triumph. The Belluno Dolomites are the ideal destination for anyone who needs a breath of fresh air and regenerating activities such as walking, cycling, climbing or horseback riding.
Through the dense network of trails, mule tracks and trekking paths surrounded by greenery, the park offers options for everyone, from beginners to more experienced hikers. Respecting some simple rules you can then go cycling inside the park, thanks to the many mtb itineraries that wind through it. Finally, the daring spires and the solemn rock faces are an exceptional microcosm for those who practice climbing and for those who are familiar with the vie ferrate.
