The settlement is situated on the southern slopes of the Peralba mountain, part of the Carnic Alps range, close to the border with Austria. Sappada is located about 130 kilometres north of Venice and about 60 kilometres northeast of Belluno.
Sappada is a German language island in Italy. The local vernacular, Plodarsich or plodar schproche , is a variety of Puster Valley Tyrolean Bavarian that is closely related to the speech of nearby Sauris in Friuli. It is however not closely related to the Germanic Cimbrian language spoken in other language islands in Trentino and Veneto. The German name of the settlement refers to the Piave river which runs through the valley.
