Reach new heights in the DOLOMITES

Breathtaking Alpine views, farm-to-table food and a game-changing spa... you'll I never want to leave this gem

- ZOE WEST

Jagged, snow-capped mountains and sunlit Alpine meadows strewn with wild flowers, thrilling adventures and world-class cuisine - the Dolomites has it all. No wonder people flock here all year round. With a mountain range so beautiful it's been awarded UNESCO World Heritage status, the area in northern Italy is renowned for its skiing and hiking. But there's more to this region than dramatic scenery and winter sports. There are some seriously stylish high-end spas - the perfect place to pause, breathe in fresh mountain air and reboot where skiing is a mere afterthought.

Iconic architecture

Prepare to be awestruck by My Arbor, a towering treetop hotel perched on the edge of a forest above Brixen. Not only is it a masterclass in bold architecture and the largest of its kind in Italy, if not Europe - it sits among the fir trees at the foot of the iconic Plose, one of the most beautiful and sunny mountains in South Tyrol.

Set atop huge wooden stilts, MyArbor seemingly floats above the treetops, and is just as magical inside. Contemporary, wide open spaces lead out on to balconies dotted with squashy seats that invite you to connect with the luscious landscapes - and the cosy communal areas can be enjoyed with a good book or conversation.

Seeking solace? Hunker down in your pine-clad suite, complete with a snug day bed and viewing nook over Heidi-esque hills, or take residence in one of the spa's cuddle nests - heated chalet-like huts-hidden below.
