Winter: Skiing

Cortina may be the most well known destination in the Dolomites. However, the best skiing is located just 45 minutes over the pass in the Alta Badia region as Cortina only has access to 5 individual resorts, none of which connect. The ski area accessible from Alta Badia is the biggest in the world with over 745 miles of continuous skiable terrain. Known as the “Dolomiti Super Ski Resort,” the area connects more than 1,000 slopes: Val di Fassa, Val Badia, Val Gardena, Arabba, Civetta, Marmolada, Pale di San Martino, Dolomiti di Sesto are some of the most well-known. You could spend weeks skiing a different slope each day without repeating a run.
