The beauty of the mountain landscape impressed UNESCO so much that since June 2009, part of the Dolomites in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region has been officially recognized as a World Natural Heritage and are protected by UNESCO. Obviously, no one can remain indifferent by looking at and talking about Forni di Sopra: this small town located in the northern part of the Tagamento Valley, between Carnia and Cadore (two nearby mountain regions) has become an ideal resort for those who love snow and all snow-related activities. Tourists will find a 15 km wide ski area and the opportunity to discover the amazing landscapes that characterize these varied ski slopes. Beginners’ needs can be met on a reasonably downhill slope down the slopes of Davost, while experienced skiers will test their skills on the exciting slopes of Monte Varmost and ski on very long runs between 900 and 2100 meters.

For those who prefer other sports, there are cross-country skiing trails: 13 km of trails set in a kind of idyllic landscape along the Tagliamento River, are part of the Dolomites ski area. In this area, you can explore the famous villages and municipalities of the Dolomites.

For those who really love direct contact with nature, there are several off-piste ski runs. Children (and not only children) will have a real pleasure on the snow playground known as Fantasy Snow Park. This park has sledding and cheesecake trails, and even adults who can’t or don’t want to ski can enjoy a day out on the snow.

And at the end of a beautiful winter day, the well-known Italian hospitality, excellent and well-known local cuisine awaits you: it will make your day even better!
