What you'll see and do
Located in the province of Belluno, Veneto, northern Italy, the Lago di Santa Croce is a semi-natural lake encompassing the communes of Alpago and Ponte nelle Alpi. At an elevation of 386 meters (1,266 feet), the lake has a surface area of 7.2 square kilometers (2.8 square miles) and an average depth of 33 meters (108 feet). The lake was naturally smaller until it was expanded with the construction of a dam in the 1930s. The Piave River serves as one of its outlets. The area’s consistent winds make it a popular destination for sailing, watersports, and kitesurfing enthusiasts.

In the Valle d'Ansei, part of the Auronzo di Cadore municipality, stretches Lake Auronzo for two kilometers. This shimmering body of water is celebrated for its clarity and popularity in the Veneto region. Situated in the Province of Belluno, Lake Auronzo is an artificial lake formed by a dam constructed in the 1930s, diverting the flow of the Ansei River. Standing 55 meters high, the dam was completed in 1932, creating a reservoir with a capacity of 6.25 million cubic meters of water. Near the dam lies a charming 16th-century chapel dedicated to St. Cristina, hence the lake is also known as Lake of Santa Cristina.

Every season is an opportunity to marvel at the lake's beauty and the breathtaking landscape that surrounds it. In summer, this corner of Belluno invites visitors to unwind and connect with nature. A well-marked cycle and pedestrian path nearly encircles the lake, offering ideal conditions for leisurely strolls, exhilarating mountain biking adventures, or peaceful horseback rides. This scenic route connects Auronzo to Misurina, another enchanting destination nestled near the majestic Tre Cime di Lavaredo and the Cadini di Misurina mountain group. The initial leg of the path is pleasantly straightforward, beginning in Auronzo and extending to Palùs San Marco: a fifteen-kilometer stretch that remains mostly level, making it accessible for all levels of outdoor enthusiasts.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook cost?
+
Prices start at $423 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Venice Pasta & Tiramisu Cooking Class with wine by Cooking Italy, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Tour of The Real Hidden Venice. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook?
+
Included: Transport by air-conditioned minivan from Venice and return; Photo stops and free time on the way; and Ebook guide. Not included: Food or drink. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook?
+
Meet the driver 15 min before at the left hand side of Piazzale Roma, in front of the hotel Olimpia in the car park area. Look for the sign with the name of the tour on it and/or the orange umbrella. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Day Tour - Cortina & Dolomites + Ebook wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
