Monday - Day 3 (Arabba & Marmolada Glacier, the “Queen of the Dolomites"): Eternal glaciers, iconic peaks, and places rich in history: the Marmolada with a height of 10,047 feet is the highest peak of the Dolomites, hence the name, Queen of the Dolomites. Not far from the Marmolada is the town of Arabba and its ski lifts. This area is a paradise for those who love nature and winter sports.

Tuesday - Day 4 (Cortina d'Ampezzo): Cortina d'Ampezzo is a symbol of a long hospitality tradition and world-class skiing events.
