Piz Arlara

The Dolomites


Stop by this social hub at 2040m for a spritz with a view or settle in for a lunch of Schlutzkrapfen (ravioli), beef goulash or the Tyrolean favourite Gröstl (a tasty Alpine bubble and squeak). Kaiserschmarren (scrambled pancakes) and apple fritters are great afternoon revivers, too. Accessible only by the Arlara chairlift from Corvara, or in summer on foot.

Check the website for various path details from each of the Badia villages.
