Bergtoppen in Belluno

Iconic Mountain Peaks

The Belluno Dolomites feature some of the most recognizable limestone formations in the Alps, including the iconic Tre Cime di Lavaredo and Monte Antelao, the highest peak in the eastern range. This selection encompasses the dramatic Tofane massif and historical sites like Monte Piana and Col di Lana, which served as crucial high-altitude battlegrounds during World War I. These peaks are characterized by vertical rock walls, karst plateaus, and the unique pinkish-orange hue of dolomite rock at sunset.
