IAT ARABBA Ufficio Informazioni Turistiche — Attraction in Livinallongo del Col di Lana

Arabba has so much to offer for anyone enjoying hiking in the Italian dolomites. The scenery is breathtaking! We enjoyed our best hikes ever in the surrounding trails as far as scenery goes.

I kindly ask that you address the signage and maintenance issues on this trail as soon as possible, so that future hikers can...

Small, quiet village in a deep valley below some impressive Dolomiti peaks. The village has most of what you need with a couple of pizzerias, some higher end restaurants and a collection of hotels and apartments. For mountain excursions there is one sports shop that has most of what you would be looking for including via Ferrata gear in summer and skis in winter and a bike rental shop offering both mtn and road bikes. Best way to get the lay of the land is to visit the tourist information office right in the center of town. Access to the mountains is make easy in both summer and winter by ski lifts on either side...
