Holiday in Friuli Venezia Giulia to discover the most authentic mountains
The Alps in Friuli Venezia Giulia: from the forest in Tarvis - the largest in
Italy and among the oldest ones in Europe - through the green Carnic valleys to
the Natural Park of Friuli Dolomites, mountain lovers can live a natural
experience, far away from noises, crowds and the ubiquitous technology thanks to
the respect of nature and to environmental protection.
A well-structured system
of paths and mountain huts offers hikers unforgettable moments. Practice walls,
trekking paths and routes making it possible to observe the many animals living
undisturbed in these mountains are the ideal ingredients of a natural and active
holiday.
Here you can
find the authentic and genuine spirit of the
mountains, enjoy forgotten tastes, sleep in the
so-called albergo diffuso (typical holiday
apartments linked to each other) and experience
festivals well-rooted in the local traditions.
In
every season you can practice any kind of sport
(mountain bike, horse-riding, paragliding, fishing
as well as skiing and other snow sports in winter,
of course), tourists can enjoy courses,
entertainment activities, shows and various events,
folk festivals and wine and dine events.
All this
helps you spend pleasant holidays in one of the
purest environments of the Alps offering at the same
time high-level facilities and an excellent
quality-price ratio.
Among other things, tourists
simply have to try out the “borderless” offers of
the Tarvis area (creating a single international
holiday area with Slovenia and Carintia) as well as
discover the villages on the Carnic slopes with
their art treasures and the delicious mountain
cuisine.
The crowning glories of Friuli Venezia Giulia are its two regional
parks: the Park of Friuli Dolomites (37 thousand
hectares from the Valcellina to the Alta Valle del
Tagliamento) and the Park of Julian Prealps (with
the charming Valle di Resia), the Eastern boundary
of which is marked by the massif of Mount Canin with
the only regional glacier.
