Location & what to see

Il Cavallino – Albergo & Appartamenti is located in Borgata Bach, in the heart of Sappada, a historic German-speaking village nestled between the Friulian Dolomites and the Comelico area, at an altitude of about 1,250 metres. The area is characterised by traditional mountain chalets and an authentic alpine atmosphere, with typical restaurants just steps from the property.

Just 40 metres away is the Karl Keller restaurant, while Sannas Stube and Ristorante Baita Mondschein are about 50 metres away: the village’s dining scene is practically on the doorstep. Enoteca da Franz Sappada is 600 metres away, a convenient spot for an evening aperitivo. Further afield, but reachable by car, are Lake Cadore (40 km) and the 3 Zinnen Dolomites, also known as Tre Cime di Lavaredo (40 km), a classic destination for hikes among the UNESCO-listed Dolomites.

Sappada is especially known for skiing: the hotel offers direct access to the slopes, ideal for those who want to ski straight from the lifts without having to travel. In winter the area offers alpine and cross-country skiing on well-groomed slopes, while in the warmer months the territory turns into a hiking area, with trails leading to peaks such as Monte Terza Grande, which rises above 2,586 metres and is located about 6.5 km from the property. The bike rental available at the hotel makes it possible to explore the surrounding valleys even outside ski season, making the property a practical base for active stays at any time of year.
