At an altitude of 2.055m in the magical UNESCO World Natural Heritage Dolomite mountains, a bedroom that brings you the stars….

 

With only glass walls to separate your warm bed from the snow of the Pale Mountains you can admire the nocturnal spectacle of the Dolomite sky from front row seats, thanks to the brand new Starlight Room, in Col Gallina, Cortina. A total immersion in UNESCO World Natural Heritage Nature and an unforgettable night to share with someone special, or alone. And of course, spiced with gourmet treats from dawn to dusk.

 

From sunset to sunrise, admire front row views of the spectacular sky at altitude from the comfort of a warm bedroom with glass walls.  At sunset the famous ‘enrosadira’ sets the Dolomites ablaze with fiery shades of red.  During night time the multitude of stars across the sky appear so close you can almost reach out and touch them…. And finally at dawn, see the Dolomites blushing pink as they are kissed by the first rays of the rising sun.

 

A delicious breakfast is of course included in your stay in the Starlight Room, as well as dinner with a rich menu of traditional dishes from starter to dessert including a selection of grappa to ease digestion.

 

The Starlight Room is accessible by snowmobile from Rifugio Col Gallina, or you can get there by your own power, either snowshoeing or fat-biking. Whichever way you chose it is sure to be an unforgettable experience.

 

Combine your starlight experience with an excursion in the spectacularly beautiful Col Gallina area. With dedicated fat bike tracks, the area is ideal for trying this fast growing activity. Have fun on the snow with oversized tyres that allows you to manoeuvre your bike on a variety of snowy surfaces.

 

A guided visit to the area’s restored First World War trenches offer an insight into the fascinating history of the Dolomites, with the opportunity to taste a typical soldier’s snack after an invigorating snowshoe excursion.

 

Internationally renowned as a world-class mountain resort and a symbol of Italian lifestyle, Cortina d’Ampezzo offers scenic, perfectly groomed ski-slopes and welcoming mountain huts with excellent cuisine, in a breathtaking winter wonderland.  Cortina is host to major international sports events such as the Women’s Alpine World Cup, and boasts famous runs that have made international ski history, like the Olympia in the Tofane. The resort is part of Dolomiti Superski, the largest ski carousel in the world, which includes 12 ski areas, 450 lifts and 1200km of runs, all accessed with a single skipass.
