HOLIDAYS AT LONGIARÙ IN VAL BADIA

A natural paradise at the gateway to the Puez-Geisler nature park

Val Badia enjoys international acclaim thanks to the Dolomites - a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site and to the ski resorts of Kronplatz and Alta Badia. Despite this, this idyllic valley in Südtirol also possesses some less well-known jewels within its territory and due to their relative limited popularity they represent the maximum expression of the Ladin traditions and the nature of the Dolomites. The village of Longíarù, Longiarü in Ladin is situated at 1,400 m a.s.l. and is an enchanting place. Here you can still feel the history and the traditions of Val Badia.

At Longiarù you can still perceive the century-old links between man and nature. The village in the district of San Martino in Badia offers a unique backdrop for those who love nature and sporty activities in close contact with nature. At Longiarù you'll find the peacefulness of the mountains, the beauty of the Dolomite landscape, Südtirol's special culinary prowess and the possibility to experience authenticity first-hand far away from the stress of everyday life. And all of this without having to forego proximity to the slopes of Kronplatz or Alta Badia, both reachable by ski bus.
