Sorapiss, also referred to as Sorapis or Punta Sorapiss, is a mountain in the Dolomites within the Veneto region of northern Italy. Situated in the comune of Cortina d`Ampezzo, it has an elevation of 3,205 metres. The mountain has three ridges: a central ridge, a southern ridge, which is the part of the mountain that can be seen from Cortina, and, beyond a high pass and little to the west, a northern ridge that culminates in the skiing area of Mount Faloria. There are three glaciers on the mountain`s slopes, although these have been melting considerably in recent years. Lake Misurina or Lago di Misurina is the largest natural lake of the Cadore and it is 1,754 m above sea level, near Auronzo di Cadore Belluno. Dolomites, Italy
