Val di Fassa Ski Holidays and Resorts 2019/20

On the mountain

The stunning Val di Fassa makes a convenient base for exploring the incredible 1220km Dolomites ski area. You're not far from the Marmolada Glacier for guaranteed snow, not that you'll need it as 90% of the slopes in the whole area have snow making.

The Alba-Col dei Rossi gondola in Penia di Canazei and the Pecol Gondola in Canazei drop you right on to the 40km Sella Ronda loop which is an intermediate skier and boarder's heaven. Or for a real test of your skills, try the Volcano black run at Buffaure-Ciampac.

Off the mountain

Val di Fassa makes for a really relaxing holiday thanks to the picture-postcard scenery and natural tranquillity of the mountains. The snowshoeing, cross country skiing and ice climbing are all the better for being surrounded by the snowy mountains and pine forests.

Nightlife in the valley is hugely varied. Penia is low-key, but neighbouring Alba (a 10 minute walk away) has a few bars and restaurants to choose from. Or if you’re looking for more choice, hop in a cab and head to Canazei which is just 3km away. Cabs run through the night so no chance of getting stranded!

Don't miss

You have to try snowshoeing whilst in Val di Fassa. The scenery is so stunning and snowshoeing is ideal for seeing parts of the resort that would otherwise be hidden.

If you fancy a break from the slopes, take a trip into Canazei. There's an ice rink, aquatic centre, snow tubing as well as plenty of shopping and lovely little cafés and bars. Grab a slice of Italian mountain life.
