The Dolomites adventure: 100% ski-in/ski-out

The journey begins in the heart of the Ampezzo Dolomites thanks to the Freccia nel Cielo cable car , which whisks you to the foot of the majestic Tofanes peaks in just a few minutes. The tone is set immediately: skis on, breathtaking panoramas, and exhilarating long descents. This iconic ski area is world-renowned for hosting the women's alpine skiing events of the Milan-Cortina Olympic Games. The area offers a wide variety of slopes: from beginner-friendly runs at the base, perfect for building confidence, to the challenging red and black runs that wind their way up to the upper slopes.

One of its greatest strengths lies in the quality of the ski area, groomed each evening by expert groomers. The legendary "Olimpia delle Tofane" is the most popular, longest, and most scenic run, alternating between dynamic sections and more accessible wide slopes. Every seasoned skier dreams of one thing: launching themselves down its famous Schuss . Between runs, the gaze wanders to panoramic peaks steeped in mountain history.

In the afternoon, the scenery changes: head to the Cinque Torri ski area , where the atmosphere becomes more peaceful and serene. Here, you'll ski amidst rocky towers rising from the snow until sunset. The day ends right at the foot of the Cinque Torri. Dinner and overnight stay in a mountain refuge.

Today, you'll embark on the legendary Armentarola run , a highlight of your ski safari . This long 8.5km descent takes you from 2730m to 1660m altitude in the heart of the Dolomites . The route invites you to adapt your pace to appreciate the variety of alpine landscapes. At the end of the run, you'll experience a unique local tradition: a ride in a horse-drawn ski taxi . You'll then reach the Alta Badia ski area, characterized by its vast, sunny plateaus, sparse forests, and Ladin hamlets with traditional barns. Throughout the day, you'll ski with breathtaking views of the Sella group , the Sassongherd , and the Fanes peaks .

Starting from Alta Badia , your day begins on a section of the Sellaronda before reaching Arabba . This alpine area reveals the summit of Porta Vescovo , offering exceptional panoramic views of the Sella group and the Marmolada . You then ascend to the Queen of the Dolomites at 3200m altitude to begin a continuous 12km scenic descent through glacial landscapes. Returning to Arabba, the route continues towards the Pordoi pass at 2200m , opening onto the Canazei ski area in the Val di Fassa . At the end of the day, you reach the unspoiled Buffaure area to enjoy the tranquility of the mountains. You settle into a cozy alpine refuge for dinner and an overnight stay with breathtaking views.

You put your skis back on right in the heart of the Belvedere - Col Rodella ski area to enjoy the slopes of Val di Fassa . The route continues towards the Sella Pass , where you ski at the foot of the Sassolungo in the famous City of Stones , a landscape sculpted by impressive boulders. You then enter the Val Gardena valley, reaching the Ciampinoi sector. This summit offers a breathtaking view of the Sella group , the Sassolungo, and the Odle peaks . You tackle more technical runs, including the famous Saslong piste, a World Cup alpine skiing venue leading down to Santa Cristina . The day ends peacefully in a new mountain refuge for dinner and the night.

Your last day on skis begins in the heart of Val Gardena , with the opportunity to ski the Gardena Ronda circuit. The morning is dedicated to the sunny slopes of Col Raiser and Seceda , where spectacular panoramas unfold. It is here that the Longia begins, a legendary descent of over 10km with a 1200m vertical drop leading directly into the valley. Crossing through Ortisei , you reach Alpe di Siusi , the largest high-altitude plateau in Europe. The skiing becomes gentler on wide open spaces, before connecting to the peaceful Monte Pana area. More athletic skiers can continue to the Gardena Pass on the Sellaronda route. Depending on your preference, the day can continue on the slopes or end in the early afternoon. You return to your hotel to enjoy the spa and relax. Dinner and overnight stay at the hotel.

End of stay.
