Forecast today: Clear skies
Beginners are well catered for by the beginner’s park at the base of the gondola. There are a few short blues around the resort which provide good progression opportunities. The area is fantastic for intermediates given the great range of blue runs across the mountain. Ambitious intermediates can catch the gondola up the mountain and ski back down to the village on a combination of blues and reds. Advanced skiers have few on piste options but there is a challenging terrain park and plenty of off piste if you take the chairlifts out of the village rather than the gondola.
The accommodation is provided by four reasonably sized hotels, with one of the resort’s claims to fame is playing host to Europe’s highest hotel at 3210m. The nearest airport is Bolzano which is only an hour’s drive away.
