The Marmolada is a famous mountain in northeastern Italy, and it is the highest mountain range of the Dolomites.

It stretches between the provinces Trentino and Veneto and is located about 100 kilometers to the north-northwest of Venice. Marmolada is made of a west-east ridge that on the south turns into sheer cliffs, forming a rock face a few kilometers long. The north side is home to the only large glacier in the Dolomites.

The ridge has several summits that range from Punta Penia at 3,343 meters to Pizzo Serauta at 3,035 meters. There is an aerial tramway or funicular that goes to the top of Punta Rocca. During the ski season, Marmolada is popular among skiers and snowboarders who can ski all the way down into the valley. Marmolada has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
