Good, reliable skiing. Even when snow is thin there’s always something, and this season conditions were more than adequate – I could finally reach the Cortina cross-country centre (I’ve been waiting since 1988 to get there).
The sheer beauty of some of the locations, particularly when skiing alone, in the quiet (well, except for a squeaky binding)
All were great
If you like Dobbiaco in Winter, return in summer - the Dolomites are spectacular.
About my 6th trip back to this lovely area and friendly welcoming hotel. Excellent group, super new spa in hotel and different routes to ski this year….when can I go again please?
Being in the beautiful Giesertal valley, the fun of the experience showers and relaxing new spa.
Anne is inspirational and a great person and teacher tailoring her tuition to everyones individual needs. Alex is super fun and has an incredible knowledge of the mountains. Both are excellent skiers.
Come and join us
Ski-ing in the Dolomites is an absolute pleasure – plenty of excellent tracks in stunning scenery – and lots of opportunities for jagertee and strudel
getting up to the end of the valley above Taisten and enjoying the stunning scenery .... and meeting the legendary Eric Wooley for the first time after 30 years of Waymark/Exodus holidays
brilliant - not just a good ski leader/teacher - a good group facilitator - with an inspiring sideline in extreme adventure holidays ...... and when our flight home was moved from Innsbruck to Munich he provided donuts and water - so thoughtful of him
make the most of the group - talk to everybody and make friends - so many good interesting companions
the food at Hotel Tschurtschenthaler (?) was great but five courses was TOO MUCH - kept on deciding to miss a course but never did
South Tyrol and the Dolomites are a must see, Mahler was here and so was the 1914-18 war.
Hotel excellent and Guides struck just the right tone.
The number of guests returning is testament to the quality of the Exodus experience here.
Go see it before it is spoiled by mass tourism.
Sorry guys it was the scenery - ice crystal rainbows in cloud over a mountain were a natural wonder.
Excellent

This resort is excellent for beginners and improvers. The integrated and impressive public transport system ,with our local pass,gave us access to a good variety of terrain,within stunning mountain settings. Having grade 1 and 2 running the same week together gave me confidence I would get training and challenges I could cope with. Older people who are reasonably fit from taking good walks should not be afraid to try this sport. The new spa at the Turchsentaler Hotel has been fitted out to a high standard and is a delightful place to easy away aches and pains and relax before dinner.

David Davies continues to be an inspiring leader: great fun ,keen to get us trying techniques and subtly and supportingly helping those who struggled to find the right level of participation : a crucial attribute of a holiday leader.
Don't be put off by snow reports: though this was the year of least snow and it was melting away in the town, our leaders found us good tracks up the valleys just short bus rides away.
Alex, who last year was an apprentice ski leader is inspiring.aswell as boundless energy and thoughtfulness out on the loipe , he entertained,intrigued and impressed us all with his short evening slides shows of other exodus adventures,his own trip to the Danube delta, and the impressive work he had begun helping a school in Ethiopa which Exodus supports. Well done everyone.
excellent trip despite less than ideal conditions at base hotel
do me a favour!
Alexu was definitely amongst the top 5 leaders that I have encountered in many years of experience of x/c ski not only with Exodus, but also with Waymark

This is the 7 th time we have done cross country skiing in Dobiacco, as we love the Dolomite scenery and the extensive choice of trails. Unfortunately this time there was no snow in Dobiacco! However, our leader had researched available areas of snow for us, so we were able to ski every day.
Cross country skiing along white ribbons of loipe meandering through green meadows, surrounded by mountains. - most unusual! We also travelled to a high area, to ski in sparkling snow fields under an intense blue sky.
Alex planned our holiday very well despite the lack of snow. He found snow for us every day! He was a friendly leader, with lots of interesting tales to tell of his adventures.
If you are unlucky enough to have insufficient snow for skiing, don't worry. Dobiacco and the surrounding area is still beautiful without snow, and there are endless possibilities for excellent walks. Take your camera! After a days skiing, I recommend a delicious Italian ice cream and a hot chocolate (really thick!) in the cafe opposite, then a swim in the hotel pool.
A location which I have visited into double figures ! This was the first time there was no snow on the small town on arrival . Despite this , we were able to ski every day thanks to the tremendous work that had been done to line many kilometres of loipe with manmade snow . Additionally we were able to visit new “pastures ” to vary our skiing experiences .
Getting a change of ski boots that I could easily click-in to the skis ( having started with one size too large ) ! My first view again of the Dolomites .
Alex I had not met before . He was a most delightful leader , very pleasant , helpful and competent . His instruction was most valuable . Although the lack on snow locally would have been a problem , Alex had scouted out all around to find areas of snow that allowed the group to have skiing every day of the trip . Also he delivered a few presentations on his expeditions to other continents to entertain us after dinner .
Prepare for good ski conditions but also for a lack of snow when walking boots might be useful .
This was my 6th trip to Dobbiaco in January and the first with very little snow. Thanks to research by our leader prior to the trip and impressive efforts by the locals to create and extend loipes, we were able to enjoy a full week’s programme of skiing.
Seeing a thin covering of snow in Dobbiaco on Wednesday evening! Exploring some area not usually visited
Alex worked really hard to make the week a success, given the poor snow conditions. As well as researching before th trip, he responded flexibly to changing conditions and I learned from his tuition. He was great company, and inspired us with his stories and pictures of other trips, especially his work in Ethiopia
Just go prepared to enjoy a week outdoors in beautiful scenery staying in a great family run hotel, and keep your fingers crossed for snow!
Once again I returned to this centre after many holidays here , as usual being welcomed as an old friend of the hotel family and staff . There are so many varied day tour routes to ski , the public transport is excellent and the scenery is so spectacular . Snow conditions are almost always good and have rarely disappointed .
The finest point is usually having an open-air lunch at 2000m after a morning's circular ski session whilst anticipating the long descent on the former Italian military road , itself a wonderful experience .
David Davies I have known for many years both as a client like myself but latterly as a leader . He is very knowledgeable of the area and its history , is an excellent instructor both for beginner skiers and the experienced , is great company and does not spare himself to make the holiday as enjoyable as possible for his clients .
Do go to Dobbiaco ; you can't go wrong for a great xc ski holiday !
I could add some comments but not for public viewing ! Do I use the chat option ?
