THE VILLAGES OF THE PARK

Le Dolomiti Friulane Patrimonio Unesco sono custodi di tradizioni e autenticità.

In montagna si arriva in punta di piedi. Sentieri e paesi sono il simbolo di tenacia e volontà di mantenere i luoghi sperduti vivi. Non troverete tutte le comodità a portata di mano. Qui la vita è semplice, scorre semplice come dovrebbe essere. Visitare le Dolomiti Friulane significa entrare in un mondo quasi scomparso. Trattorie, osterie, rifugi a conduzione famigliare dedicano molta cura e attenzione ai piatti tipici per far scoprire agli ospiti i sapori di un tempo. Case vacanze, B&B e alberghi diffusi sono nati grazie alla ristrutturazione di vecchie case e antiche dimore di contadini. L’autenticità traspira e insieme a lei il fascino di terre selvagge.
