The Dolomites are undoubtedly one of the most spectacular naturalistic places you can visit in Italy. They are located in Veneto, Friuli Venezia Giulia and Trentino Alto Adige. This Italian location represents an exceptional place both from a geological-naturalistic point of view and a touristic one, thanks to essential ski resorts and towns that live in symbiosis with the mountains.

This place's special and unique nature was already widely recognised in Italy, which had already established more protected and well-defined nature parks with more specific laws by the end of the 20th century. In the early 2000s, efforts were therefore being made to safeguard the area and have this immense mountain range included in the UNESCO World Heritage list.
