    Around 52 kilometers and 1,700 meters in altitude are waiting for you if you want to ride the famous Sella Ronda through the Dolomites. This is particularly attractive during the Sella Ronda Bike Day. Every year the route around the Sella Group is closed to cars and motorbikes for seven hours, you can only ride your bike there - a great event. Corvara is a great starting point for the big round. When you get back, a fresh espresso is waiting for you here!

      The place Kurfar-Corvara is located in the southwestern branch of the upper, southern Gadertal in Ladinia. Here the roads branch off to the Passes Gardena and the lower Campolongo Pass, which is easier to navigate.

          Beautiful panorama coming down from Passo Campolongo, below you can admire the town of Corvara and the climb to Passo Gardena

            Some of the best climbs in the Dolomites start from Corvara. If you go west, you climb the 8.8 km long Passo Gardena (avg 6.7%). If you go south you will enter the beautiful Passo Campolongo (6.0km, 5.9%). Drive another 4km to the village of La Villa, from there you can enter the Passo Valparola (13.7km, 5.9%).

              The asphalt has suffered tremendously down to Corvara in the last few winters. So careful! But when I was there, there were construction works (at least in Corvara)

                Corvara in Badia (Corvara in Ladin and German [5]) is an Italian town of 1 367 inhabitants in the autonomous province of Bolzano in Trentino-Alto Adige, the largest town in Val Badia, located at 1568 m a.s.l. in the "heart" of the Dolomites. Renowned ski resort in the Puez del Sella Ronda Group, at the foot of the Sassongher and the Dolomiti Superski area, it is part of the Val Pusteria District Community, and is one of the 18 municipalities that make up Ladinia. The meteorological station of Corvara in Badia is located there. Although they are now part of the same municipality, the towns of Corvara and Colfosco have had distinctly different histories and have also been part of different territories. There is historical information of Corvara only from 1292, unlike Colfosco, which is traced back a century and a half earlier, precisely from the year 1153, and the town was part of the ancient lordship of Marebbe-Val Badia. Corvara belonged to the jurisdiction of Marebbe, Colfosco instead to that of Selva di Val Gardena, and the latter location was annexed to Val Badia only in 1828.

                Ecclesiastically, Colfosco first belonged to the parish church of Laion, then to the curacy of Santa Cristina in Val Gardena. Both Corvara and Colfosco belonged to the jurisdiction of Marebbe until the end of the First World War and were part of the Brunico district.

                The oldest of the churches, that of Santa Caterina, already existed in the fifteenth century and we know of it because we are talking about a priest who held mass there. The other church, dedicated to the Sacred Heart, is much more recent, from 1962. Given the remote location of the town and the purely mountain life of the population, no events of particular importance have occurred. Both Corvara and Colfosco acquired international fame in the 19th century, when they began to be appreciated for skiing and hiking activities. In 1947 the first chairlift in Italy was completed and tested in Corvara, which connected the town to the Col Alto, starting a process of intensification of the tourist and ski industry which saw a particular increase in the seventies, creating numerous parking places. I work for the local population and also for people who have come from other regions.

                    Wonderful Corvara! Is there anywhere as good as here for rides in the high Dolomites?

                          Corvara as the starting point of the Sellaronda over the Gardena Pass or clockwise over the Valparola 👍

                                  Corvara is undoubtedly the center of the Dolomites, located in the upper plain of Val Badia nestled between the Gardena pass, Campolongo and Valparola. Surrounded by the Sella, Sassongher, Col Alto.
