    Corvara from Campolongo Pass
    Photo: Alta Badia/Alex Moling
The Sassongher mountain, 2665 m high, located on the south-eastern border of the Puez-Geisler Nature Park, UNESCO World Heritage, is the mountain which most represents the town of Corvara. From its summit you can enjoy a 360° view of the Dolomites.
The imposing massif overlooking Corvara is particularly attractive seen from the Campolongo pass.
For some years now, a bench and a large wooden panel with the writing Corvara, have been on the first curves of the pass where there is a particularly beautiful viewpoint.
Locals and tourists love to sit here and admire this Dolomite giant. Sassongher makes the perfect subject for photos and the ideal backdrop for selfies.

Approach
Follow the SS244 Val Badia road towards Corvara.
