Description
Meandering from our home base in Sexten/Sesto located in the Dolomite Mountains, we traveled north west toward Toblach/ Dobbiaco to pass this picturesque mountain cross, with a rooster weather vane on top. All were pictured against the Tre Cime mountains peaking through the mountain passes.
“Dobbiaco is Extraordinary: it Tempers your Body and Soul”.
These words on Dobbiaco/Toblach – were spoken by Gustav Mahler, probably the town’s most famous visitor ever.
It is part of the three municipalities in the Alta Val Pusteria (Hochpustertal in German – together with neighbouring Sesto/Sexten and San Candido/Innichen – to have become known as one of the “Comuni delle Tre Cime” (Drei Zinnen in German): the three communities – on the South Tyrol side – lying at the foot of these celebrated peaks that have become the symbol of the Dolomites.
For its peculiar location, Dobbiaco/Toblach is considered one of the key gateways to the Dolomites, situated at an altitude – over 3,500 ft,
The town is spread over a high, lush plateau: a location that – despite being surrounded by tall mountains – is very open and abundantly sunny, especially during the summer months.
This area will be in the 2026 Cortina Milan winter games.
