Best 5 Places for Skiing in the Dolomites

Sexten Valley: Making up Italy’s iconic Dolomites, the Sexten Dolomites is a fabulous region full of history and skiing trails that snake through the South Tyrol and north-eastern Italy. Nestled between the Sexten Dolomites and the Carnian Alps is the Sexten Valley, a wildly beautiful and nature-filled area that has become synonymous with skiing and mountain climbing. Alpine meadows and ancient pine trees create a romantic backdrop while the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, the Three Peaks of the Dolomites, are the main focal point.

Alta Badia: Arguably one of the most well know skiing regions in Italy in the heart of the South Tyrolean Dolomite Mountains, Alta Badia is a popular destination for winter holidays in Italy. Its gentler slopes of San Cassiano and Corvara are perfect for anyone that is new to skiing but still wants to explore the stunning scenery of the Dolomites. There’s a real sense of calm in the air which provides a relaxing atmosphere where you can develop your skills. But if you’re a seasoned skier, there are 130km of well-maintained slopes to explore.

Madonna di Campiglio: Affectionately known as the Pearl of the Dolomites, Madonna di Campiglio is a popular location for awinter activities in Italy. Skiing was introduced to the area in the early 20th century owing to its picturesque setting and alpine peaks that are hugged by the Dolomites and the Adamello Presanella range. With approximately 150km of slopes to explore, Campiglio is one of the largest ski areas in Italy. If you like a challenge, you can also trek along the Via Ferrate for some of the finest views in the world.

Villabassa: Enjoying a mild climate with plenty of sun and a dreamy position high up in the heart of the Dolomites, Villabassa is a much-loved destination for winter trips to Italy. This pretty spa village has become the starting point for skiing and winter walking along the Val Pusteria trail. But it’s not all about the skiing here, Villabassa also has a rich history and is home to several religious buildings such as St Anna Chapel and St Magdalene Church which houses a splendid Franz Kock organ.

San Cassiano: One of the prettiest alpine villages in the Dolomites, San Cassiano nestles at the foot of Continurines and Lavarela. In the winter months, adventure seekers travel here to ski down the famous Foram toboggan run, which stretches for over 7km from Lagazuoi. The Armentarola cross-country skiing centre also attracts the regular skiing crowd as it forms a part of the exceptional Dolomiti Nordic Ski. For some wonderful apres-ski, there’s a wide selection of restaurants and bars in the village where you can mingle with other skiers and walkers in the area.

Had the most amazing time. Mohamed showed us a lot of fascinating places and explained the Moroccan way of life. He was an excellent tour guide. Some people had problems with their accommodations. Mohammed got these issues dealt with quickly and efficiently. Mohamed was enthusiastic, energetic, positive and very helpful. He explained everything very well. Kind, considerate, responsible! He is an excellent tour guide. We enjoyed the diversity of the country. Each day was another new and exciting adventure. We learned a lot. The riads were a true Moroccan experience and the hotels were also very nice. The Moroccans were polite, respectful, helpful and very friendly. We are truly are grateful to have had this experience in Beautiful Morocco. We enjoyed the small group experience and met nice people on our tour.

This trip was amazing from start to finish! It was such a great mix of culture, history, food, and scenery – every day felt different and full of new experiences.

South Korea really surprised me with how diverse it is. From busy Seoul to quiet temples and mountain hikes, there was so much to take in. The trip was pretty full-on at times, and I’d have loved a bit more free time in Seoul or Busan to explore on my own, but overall it flowed really well.
