During the summer the camp sites in the Dolomites are a sea of beautifully coloured flowers. Camp site in the Dolomites have for ages been loved by mountain climbers, nature lovers and travellers who enjoy the unusual countryside.
You will find many castles close to your camp site in the Dolomites because there have been many conflicts throughout history between the Austrians and the Italians. The hospitality of the people is demonstrated by the so-called rifugi: houses and cabins in Tyrolean style with lovely wooden balconies to enjoy the winter sun and overhanging roofs to keep the snow away.
