In 1988 it was planned to create the Dolomiti Bellunesi national park, that was officially established in 1990 by the Ministry of the Environment, which identified the aims of the national park: Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park has an area of 32 square kilometres (12 sq mi),[1] entirely included in the province of Belluno, between the Cismon river and the Piave river, the Maè valley and the Agordo valley.

The national park includes mountain ranges of Alpi Feltrine (Vette di Feltre, Cimonega, Pizzocco, Brendol, Agnelezze), Monti del Sole, Schiara, Talvena, Prampèr and Spiz di Mezzodì.

There are high-altitude areas, karst rocks and debris slopes, ideal habitat for high-mountain species.

The national park includes 15 municipalities: Belluno, Cesiomaggiore, Feltre, Gosaldo, La Valle Agordina, Longarone, Pedavena, Ponte nelle Alpi, Rivamonte, San Gregorio nelle Alpi, Santa Giustina (Italia), Sedico, Sospirolo, Sovramonte and Val di Zoldo.

The flora of Bellunesi Dolomites is composed by rhododendron, Carduus, edelweiss and other alpine plants.
