2. Castello di Botestagno

   The Castle of Botestagno stands on the remains of an ancient fortification perched on a rocky outcrop along the Ampezzo Valley. Its origins probably date back to the 11th century and, thanks to its strategic position, it controlled the passage between Cadore and Tyrol. Today there are still impressive ruins immersed in the woods that tell the medieval past of the valley and offer splendid views of the surrounding Dolomites.
