Skiing Val di Fassa – Fantastic Dolomites!

Val di Fassa is located in the southwest part of the Dolomites in Trentino and borders on to South Tyrol. The idyllic valley is dominated by some of the most famous Dolomite peaks, such as the Catinaccio group (2,983 m), the Sassolungo (2,244 m), the mighty Sella group and the impressive Marmolada glacier (3,342 m). The small Avisio river meanders through the valley where three languages are spoken (German, Italian, Ladin) and passes many famous resorts. With 120 km of piste and 53 lifts, it is one of the largest ski areas in the Dolomiti-Superski area and furthermore offers a connection to the world-renowned Sella Ronda. Val di Fassa, where tourism is the biggest source of income, offers its guests, alongside a first class ski area, plenty to see and do such as diverse leisure activities encompassing sport and relaxation, tradition and culture, hospitality and obviously the great Trentino cuisine.

Val di Fassa is situated amongst breathtaking mountain landscape. Vigo (1,393 m) and Pozza (1,320 m) enjoy the stunning backdrop of the "Rose garden" mountains. Still blessed with a certain extent of "southern flair", these villages are somewhat quieter than the other resorts, making them ideal for families. Campitello (1,448 m) is dominated by the gigantic Langkofels Massiv and the Col Rodella (2,404 m). Canazei (1,450 m) is the most well-known resort in the Fassa Valley and offers - like Campitello - direct access to the Sella Ronda day tour. The resort is influenced by its Ladin tradition and offers an ideal combination of nature and sport, events and nature, relaxation and night life. The district Alba (1,517 m) is especially known due to its steep cliffs and black diamond extreme descent into the valley. A free ski bus network guarantees good connections between the individual resorts.
