Treasures of Cortina

As promised the night before at dinner, we're going to erase the Chinkwee-Torry. It won't be long, the lower station of the right lift, which will take us to the local attraction, very close.
We park in a free parking lot and head upstairs. The famous stone pillars are already visible from the "chair" on the left as we move. We get off quickly and go to get to know them. Then we go back to the car on the same lift.

Now, without wasting time, we go to the lift with the slightly poetic name "Freccia nel Cielo", which means "Arrow to the Sky". It takes us to the slopes of the main summit of the resort, Tofana, from where we can look out over Cortina and the surrounding panorama.
When the local lift complex is completed in 2021, it will take passengers to the very top - to Tofano di Mezzo, at a dizzying 3,244 metres. It is promised that it will be possible to get up so high even in winter. If so, we will be lucky to have the best viewpoint above Cortina!
We park near the lift and return to the car in an hour and a half.

The Tofana Visa is a very relief peak of Monte Cristallo and also deserves a special visit. We drive up to the lift, which takes us to the observation deck and the Son Forca Alpine shelter, leave the car in the parking lot and drive upstairs. In about an hour (or maybe faster) we go back downstairs.

To close the theme with the mountain peaks and viewing platforms around Cortina, we only have to climb up to Faloria. All the more so because the funicular leading to it is located quite nearby and is itself a rather remarkable object - the appearance of the cabin has not changed perhaps since its opening in 1977.
You can have lunch here, too, by the way. In Rifugio Faloria there are restaurants - self-service, simple, and "a la carte", more expensive.

It's time to go back to the hotel and get some rest.

Have you rested? It's time to go for a walk - Cortina is a very suitable place to look at the bright windows, locals and elegant holidaymakers.

At the same time, you can go to the Sport bar. Every night, "all your" people gather here easily. Well, we are not strangers anymore!)

Cortina is full of good restaurants where you can have a great dinner. Do you like pizza? The Porto Rotondo pizzeria is the right place to end such a busy day.

It's better not to stay up late at the restaurant this time. We'll have to get up early, and the day will be special - we'll go to watch Tre-Chima!
