That the Marmolada deserves the title of “Queen of the Dolomites” not only because it’s the highest mountain in the entire Dolomite chain (with an altitude of 3342 metres), is now widely known. This mountain is truly unique in all ways: on the south side, with its 800-meter vertical wall and, on the north, where fantastic ski slopes descend all the way to the Fedaia Lake and to Malga Ciapela, offering indescribable emotions for all those who would like to to ascend to such heights.
From its peak, the view extends, from one side, over the entire Dolomite arc and, from the other, to the lowlands and even all the way to the Venice lagoon.
There are many ways to reach the slopes of the Marmolada: either directly from Malga Ciapela in the Agordino, in any type of vehicle, with cableways that go to the top of the glacier, or by Arabba or even by Corvara through the “Porta Vescovo” cableway, the “Padon” pass and the “Fedaia” lift systems.
In all cases, it’s worth dedicating one day just to the “Queen of the Dolomites” that will repay us with truly unforgettable memories.
