Your 6 Day Ski Plan
Corvara is the perfect base for skiing in the Italian Dolomites, but it is part of a much larger linked ski area.
Fortunately there is some great waymarking, but that doesn’t stop skiers getting lost if they are not familiar with the resorts.
Our 6 day ski plan is carefully put together to help first timers and regulars alike to get the best out of skiing in the Dolomites.
If you do all 6 of them, we guarantee you’ll be back for more! Here is an overview…
Sat - Arrive & Settle In
Settle in and prepare for an exciting holiday ahead.
Pick up your ski pass and organize your skis, boots, and helmet. Take a brief stroll to get acquainted with the resort. If you’ve scheduled lessons, visit the ski school to address any queries you might have.
Use the village map in your portal to pinpoint important locations.
Sun - Pralongia Plateau
Pralongia Plateau
Despite its name, not really a plateau – but it’s the perfect way to start your trip with stunning scenery and traditional mountain huts. Enjoy an endless array of blue and red runs that weave through breathtaking snowy landscapes. The meticulously groomed, tree-lined pistes are dotted with delightful rifugios. This is an ideal day for getting oriented with the local area.
Mon - The Orange Sellaronda
A jewel in the crown of Dolomiti Superski that passes right through Corvara
Rich in mountain vistas, the Sellaronda is comprised of 27kms of spectacular pistes that circumnavigate the colossal Sella massif, dropping you into fabulous resorts and valleys as you go, notably Arabba, the Val di Fassa, the Val Gardena and then back to Corvara in the Alta Badia. Why Orange? This is the clockwise version of the Sellaronda, waymarked throughout by orange signs.
Tues - The Hidden Valley
Today we give you the most scenic piste on the planet
Often featured in articles about extraordinary ski routes, this is a day featuring scenery that will never be forgotten. Stand by for sheer cliff faces, frozen waterfalls and panoramic viewing points. For some additional charm and fun, skiers also get towed by horses from the bottom of the valley back to the lift system.
Wed - The Marmolada
The Queen of the Dolomites – at 3343m our highest peak.
Descend from the summit on a thrilling and panoramic 12km red run. The Marmolada looms large above the whole region, its brilliant-white glacier dominating many a view. The summit is reached via a truly dramatic cable car experience. And there’s plenty of ski fun to be had as you initially ski to Arabba, where you branch off on a series of fabulous reds and blues to the Marmolada itself.
Thu - Ortisei
Ski the entire length of the Val Gardena to Ortisei
This fabulous day tour to beautiful Ortisei culminates on the breathtaking 10km Seceda red run, passing frozen waterfalls along the way.
The tour is a feast of long red runs and mindboggling scenery. A funicular train connects Santa Cristina to Ortisei. It awaits you at the bottom of Sasslong, where you can choose the red or black, the latter being the Men’s World Cup downhill.
Fri - The Green Sellaronda
Another 27kms of blue and red adventure
This is the anti-clockwise version of the Orange Sellaronda, waymarked by green signs and featuring some of our favourite runs in the whole of Dolomiti Superski. A fabulous and fitting note to end your week on, it will leave you wanting more.
Sat - Depart
It’s time to go home.
Double-check your travel arrangements and be ready for an early start.
Our scheduled transfer service to Venice Marco Polo leaves at 0615 (must be booked in advance), so your return flight must depart after 1200.
Private transfers are also available if you prefer to minimise waiting time at the airport; contact us for details and book early.
