Ever skied in the Dolomites, the UNESCO World Heritage Site? From exciting ski slopes to its scenic location, Dolomiti Superski area offers unforgettable experiences that should be on every traveler’s list.
The 12 ski valleys of the biggest ski resort in the world include 1200 km of slopes and 450 lift facilities, as well as the legendary Sella Ronda circuit – and that’s precisely why ski fans love it!

Thanks to the combination of a sunny, marvellous location, and a gorgeous view, Alpe di Siusi has long attracted a stylish, upscale clientele. So buy a trendy ski suit, put on your premium ski helm and hit the slopes in style! Be advised that Italian skiers dress awesome – they know about fit, cut and the subtle way of accessorizing. Gorgeous sun glasses are a must!
