Cortina d'Ampezzo (Cortina d'Ampezzo) - a pretty and aristocratic town, where mostly they go not so much to ride, how much to "burn" life. Indirect confirmation of this is the fact that two out of every three tourists coming to Cortina do not even get on skis.
However, riding there is quite comfortable: a lot of sun, and the mountain ranges of the Dolomites protect the town from the cold wind.
The Winter Olympic Games of 1944 were to be held here, but were canceled because of World War II. And only in 1956 in Cortina there was a winter Olympics, where the USSR national team took part for the first time.
