Domegge di Cadore, between history and nature
Domegge di Cadore awaits you for a relaxing holiday between history and nature, mountains and lakes, trekking and cycling, sport fishing and cross-country skiing.
Domegge di Cadore lies on the northern shore of the Piave River in a wonderful valley surrounded by lofty mountains like Spalti di Toro, Tudaio, Antelao and Marmarole.
Domegge di Cadore: what to do
Here you will find interesting hikes of different difficulty levels, like the Haute Route n. 6, or the trails that reach the mountain huts. If you are looking for easier hikes you can follow the lakeside trail or the Pian dei Buoi plateau trail. If you prefer cycling to walking, you should try the "Lunga Via delle Dolomiti" cycle path that takes you to Domegge.
In winter you have at your disposal two cross-country skiing tracks: the first one is 5 km long and the second is 1,5 km long and floodlit. From Domegge you can easily reach the Auronzo-Misurina and the Cortina d'Ampezzo ski areas.
Skiing is not the only sport you can practice here: you can also play tennis, practice target shooting in the National Shooting Center, and play basketball in the Palafedon, where the men's national basketball team trained.
