Went to Corvara in the 1980's when I was 13 with my parents. Amazing trip. One particular day I skied from Corvara to Cortina D'Ampezzo, all without a bus or car, just using ski lifts. The interconnection between these valleys is really incredible (coming from a North American perspective). I mean, you can actually "travel" using downhill skis!
PROPS for suggesting Forcelles. The piste of my heart, where I want to be buried when time comes. BTW while it's true that most pistes are easy, you can bomb down Dantercepies, Boe, Cir, Gran Risa. Plus is really easy to ski in Gardena or Arabba and you got their fair share of black runs! And in 10 years of Superski, never actually knew of the trick to Cortina at end of Lagazuoi! Awesome content as always.
From the Sellaronda area, my favorite resort for advanced skiing is surely Arabba. With the new cable car of Porta Vescovo you can climb the over 800 m in 5 min, ski all the way down and synchronize with the cable car for a non stop skiing day. Check out the slope called Fodoma (with the most challenging ski wall in Italy imo) and the Bellunese slope n the Marmolada resort. Unfortunately, it can be quite packed in the weekends.
Colfosco is in the shadow? I don't agree :). It is south oriented. Maybe late afternoon overshadowed by Gruppo di Sella, but so is Corvara. I come here nearly every year for the past 25 years. Paradise.
Good shout on the Lagazuoi run. Still the best run i have ever been on, amazing fast twisty but safe red for an intermediate skiier with great views and is dead quiet.
Been there this year, It's a great place for ski and to feel italian way of life. I will recommend simple restaurant in ice club (stadio). I dream to get back there again, but this year will try val d'isere.
In my opinion Val Gardena is the best and the cool thing is that Alta Badia and Corvara is “just behind the corner “ and you can easily get from one area to the other.
Awesome production quality guys, you're killing it with those reviews ! Also, do you reckon it is possible to start in Cortina town, do the Sellaronda and get back to Cortina, all in one day and fully on skis (except the taxi back to the top of Lagazoui)? Looking at the ski lift maps it looks doable but bit worried about the time.
it is absolutely doable, but begin your tour at the lift opening, and don't do it on the weekend, because the lines in the Sell Ronda circle can be long. plan a short and light lunch. the most important thing is to arrive to Passo Falzarego on time so at least if the lift will be close you are in D' Ampezzo valley.
@@SkiResortsVideo that's a pity. Bc snow resorts and hence your reviews, all look so much better with snow on the ground. I've noticed this a bit with your reviews. Ie low snow. Good anyway and thnx.
@@SkiResortsVideo In Alta Badia (Corvara especially) only on 3rd Place 90 % ladin, 7 % italian 3 % german. Ladin is a romance language and has similarities with Furlan in Friuli Venezia Giulia and Romansch in switzerland
Dolomites are probably the best mountains in the world !

Our group has been going to Colfosco since 2000,great area, never had bad snow yet.
Roughly, what dates in the season?

We agree. But in December and January, the village is less sunny than Corvara. What dates you usually go skiing there?
really helpful thanks

Going to Campitello in a few days! The 9th time in total, cant wait.
Alta Badia is on my bucket list, having skied many resorts in the Alps have never been to the Dolomites.
Been there this year, It's a great place for ski and to feel italian way of life. I will recommend simple restaurant in ice club (stadio). I dream to get back there again, but this year will try val d'isere.
I went to Cortina and did the Hidden Valley run once; simply fantastic. Can highly recommend.
Also: Please do a review of Åre, Sweden!
We will do so, hopefully, next winter
Magical place, perfect ski resort.
btw: In my option the best ski resort in italy is Val Gardena, but Alta Badia is immediately behind.
In my opinion Val Gardena is the best and the cool thing is that Alta Badia and Corvara is “just behind the corner “ and you can easily get from one area to the other.
fantastic views!
I'd love to see you do Grandvalira
We plan to review Grand Valira. It won't be uploaded before next winter

BTW, you can also ski in Val gardena and come back without doing the Sella Ronda circle, you can also ski to Marmolada without doing the whole circle
@@SkiResortsVideo I see, thanks !
I personaly pref. Seiser Alm. a bit cheaper and just where i "grew up"
i want to be there!
Is Corvara much more expensive than the other villages?
All of these videos of the Dolomites and there is never much snow.
You mean there is not enough snow?
We sadly film usually at the end of March due to lack of budget. Last march was very bad snow conditions.

san cassiano is the best village in altya badia
You can literally spend an entire season in the Dolomites and not see everything
Alta Badia is ladin speaking not german
but also German, no?
