Val
di Fassa.
This valley, rich in cultural traditions, offers incomparable
beauty of the Dolomites and numerous sports facilities.
Amidst mountains, Valle di Fassa lies in the north-east
part of Trentino. The Avisio river flows through the
well-known alpine valley surrounded by the most spectacular
and famous Dolomite peaks, such as the Sella Group,
Sassolungo, the Catinaccio with the Torri del Vajolet
and Marmolada. Ice and wind modeled the rocks creating
the steep walls, towering spires and daring pinnacles
typical of these mountains which have always been
a source of wonder, a favorite destination of rock
climbers and the inspiration of old and convincing
legends. The attraction of the Fassa Dolomites is
further enhanced at sunset when the sun´s rays
seem to set the rocks alight and they turn a warm
red color creating the phenomenon called "Enrosadira",
the extraordinary beauty of which never fails to cause
astonishment. Valle di Fassa conserves all the charm
of a land where nature has created an environment
of incomparable beauty which the local population
is extremely proud of and which they make every effort
to protect, as they do their customs and traditions.
In fact the valleys around the Sella Group in Valle
di Fassa conserve the Ladin language and culture.
