Borca di Cadore
A jewel in three hamlets
Cancia
Nestled at the foot of the Dolomites, the hamlet of Cancia is a small Alpine jewel that preserves the timeless atmosphere of the mountains. Defined by stone and wood houses, traditional barns, and narrow lanes, Cancia is immersed in a stunning landscape dominated by the majestic Antelao massif.
A place of tranquility and deep connection with nature, it serves as a starting point for woodland strolls, hikes toward the Dolomite High Ways (Alte Vie), and outdoor activities in every season. Here, the authentic identity of Cadore still thrives amidst rejuvenating silences, deep-rooted traditions, and the sincere warmth of the local community.
Villanova
Villanova is the contemporary side of Borca di Cadore, a more modern settlement compared to the ancient heart of the valley. Surrounded by pine forests and breathtaking views, this hamlet is known for its peaceful residential vibe, the perfect retreat for those wanting to reconnect with nature.
In Villanova, modern living meets the mountain landscape through elegant second homes and welcoming guest houses. It’s the ideal choice for anyone seeking a blend of comfort, tranquility, and easy connections to world-famous destinations like Cortina and San Vito. A quiet haven where the mountains are always in sight, inviting you to enjoy the beauty of the simple things.
Corte
Corte is nestled between silent woods and glimpses of timeless Dolomites, a hamlet that guards the ancient soul of the valley. Here, time seems to slow down: old stone and timber houses, dry-stone walls, carved fountains, and small gardens tell the stories of generations who lived in harmony with the mountains.
Corte does not seek to dazzle; it speaks in whispers. It is the echo of a rural Cadore, made of simple living, unhurried gestures, and deep ties to the land. Walking through its lanes is like stepping into a story made of silence, the wind through the larches, and the scent of hay. A secluded and precious corner, for those who know how to listen.
