Autumn in the Dolomites

When summer comes to an end, a magical time begins here with us.
A unique natural spectacle in Val Gardena.

When the summer slowly comes to an end, nature finds its peace and the sky appears clearer than ever, then there is a very special natural spectacle to observe in Val Gardena: Burning Dolomites (the burning mountains).

From the middle of September, the needles of the larch turn from green to yellow, and then to glowing orange, red and brown. At the same time, a special and deep sunlight makes the Dolomites (UNESCO World Heritage) appear wonderfully red. The myth-enshrouded “Pale Mountains” transform into glowing rocks: the edges, points and towers are immersed in a magical sunlight, framed by a crystal-clear and radiantly blue sky, typical of the stable fine weather conditions in autumn.

Photographers and nature watchers love to visit the Dolomite valley at this time of year, when it becomes peaceful and tranquil – visitors are truly astonished by the spectrum of colors.
