| Nature
and Peace in Mazzin
The central area of Fassa
has kept all of its peace and natural surroundings
from days gone by
The
municipality of Mazzin di Fassa includes three small
villages: Mazzin, Campestrin and Fontanazzo, which
all together have less than 500 inhabitants. In
fact, there are fewer hotels and other types of
accommodation here than in the other municipalities
of the valley and there are no ski lifts starting
out directly from any of the three villages. This
all serves to give Mazzin its title as the quietest
municipality in the Val di Fassa. Its central position
in the valley means that tourists who choose to
stay there can easily reach all of the other towns
and villages of Fassa.
Thus, in a few minutes it is possible
to get to the lifts in the upper Val di Fassa, or
those in Pozza di Fassa going up to the Buffaure
Ski Area or to the Catinaccio Ski Area from Pera
di Fassa. On this subject, we would like to remind
you that there is a Skibus service linking all of
the skiing areas in the valley. Mazzin is a great
starting point for cross-country skiing. Suffice
to say that the entire area is crossed by the route
of the mythical Marcialonga. In the summer it is
possible to set out on the hiking routes on Catinaccio-Antermoia
from Mazzin, climbing along the wild and impervious
Val Udai.
Worth mentioning is one of the oldest
houses in the whole Val di Fassa: "Casa Battel"
in Mazzin, which dates back to the 16th century.
