It’s that time of year when Italians head to the mountains in northern Italy for what they refer to “La Settimana Bianca” or “The White Week” referring to week-long ski trips during the winter months. So, once again an excuse to put their jobs on the back burner in favor of “La Dolce Vita.”
Their biggest dilemma is trying to decide between the Italian Alps … or Dolomites? Bottom line, one can’t go wrong with either one. Both Italian mountain ranges technically belong to the Alps. But most locals call the range in Italy’s northeast corner the Dolomites, while those in the northwest, in the Valle d’Aosta, are the Alps.
