The locations of the Maratona dles dolomites 01.07.2012
Val Badia, Val Gardena, Val di Fassa, Livinallongo, Colle Santa Lucia, Selva di Cadore, Cortina
..are the locations that host to the "Maratona dles Dolomites" every year, with the valuable support
and grateful comprehension for the inevitable discomfort the event may cause to citizens and tourists. Valleys and resorts in the Dolomites where history and traditions combine to give life to a unique reality, the Ladin culture: an ancient people that grew in these wonderful but impervious regions, and learned how to live in close touch with the surrounding nature, while preserving their language, customs, and traditions in time. A two-thousand year long history that we may perceive in so many small things: from architecture to local art, from craft to music and, particularly, in their language that remained almost unaffected by external developments until our time, keeping its Raethian-Latin origin unchanged. Each valley uses the Ladin language with different nuances, often even changing from one village to the next.
A stay at The Hotel Fanes****S in the Dolomitic-Ladin valleys is a unique experience if you get deep into this atmosphere of a past time, into a world that is still made of simple and genuine things. To unveil those long-forgotten customs, even if for a short time, and restore feelings that no longer exist in our modern world.
Linked with each other through the Dolomitisuperskipass, the world's largest ski area, where you may ski from one valley to the next without using your own transport means, and linked together by the same, wonderful Dolomitic landscape, they create an exceptional, huge tourist feature, ready to satisfy even the most demanding requirements.
Experiencing the Dolomites in winter snow or in the untouched natural summer landscape will be a never-ending emotion.
