The largest ski area in the Val di Fiemme
The largest ski area in the Val di Fiemme offering a wide range of slopes across 5 picturesque valleys. A real cultural experience as you head from the mainly Italian speaking Pampeago area and ski over to the mainly German speaking Obereggen resort – it pays to be tri-lingual in this area.
Our groups have run out of superlatives when trying to describe the beauty of the area, the slopes, the ski school and warmth of the people to us so all we can say is come and see at first-hand the resort that has left pupils and staff speechless.

All-Season Skiing

A large network of mainly red and blue runs are spread across 5 valleys from the town of Predazzo into the hub of Pampeago and then across to Obereggen. A very snow sure area offering most of the skiing above 1700m, the Pampeago area offers great conditions all season long.

Most groups start from the Pampeago area with the main beginners slopes and meeting areas just above the car park (or the Sporthotel Pampeago if you are staying there) on the Latemar lift. A large wide snow bowl is a great starting area for beginners with two chairlifts to ensure a quick return. Progression is easy with numerous gentle blue and red runs winding their way across three valleys towards Obereggen, all linked with fast, comfortable chair lifts. A stop in the middle valley at the top of the Absam Maierl 6 person chairlift offers some of the most up-close and breathtaking views of the Dolomites in the area. Groups will ski on tree lined trails and more open motorway style slopes – all immaculately prepared. This superb preparation aids learning as pupils can trust the slopes under their skis and not worry about hitting rogue patches of ice etc. A better learning environment makes for a more confidence-building experience.

Challenges for Every Level of Skier

Progressing skiers will take on the more challenging slopes of Grappa Mountain, Chairway to Heaven and the Race Track (named by our groups – just ask for the full story.) on the Agnello side of the mountain before taking on the testing long black and red runs heading down from the top of the Passo Feudo chairlift to the Refugio Gardone (where the cable car from Predazzo arrives). For the ultimate challenge the Pala di Santa offers a deceptively easy start into a steep black run that will test the most advanced skiers. Overall every level of skier will find more than enough to challenge and push them during their visit and our ski school will ensure that every pupil reaches the best of their potential and has an unforgettable trip.

Accommodation

Hungry? You’re Spoilt for Choice

Food and the Italians go hand in hand and we use at least 5 different mountain restaurants in the resort. Students and staff get offered plenty of variety, from pizza and pasta to burgers and bratwurst all tastes can be catered for. The only problem might be skiing on a very full stomach after lunch.

Snow Guaranteed

Two large snow sure bowls and a long chute run to the valley make up the Cermis area. Cermis has the best snow record in the valley and you are always guaranteed the best conditions and piste preparation here. The first bowl above the Eurotel and gondola top station offers beginners a large wide play area to finish the week before heading down the 4.5km Via del Bosco to the mid-station. Progressing skiers head over into the ‘back bowl’ served by the Prafiori chairlift to explore the long red runs and many off-piste options with their instructor. Those up for the challenge of the Olympia runs may start off with a few runs on the Costabella and Carlo Donei slopes and when ready they can have a go at the first section before the more challenging Olympia 2 (which offers stunning views across the valley) and then the more relaxed red slope of Olympia 3.

Food for Every Taste

For lunch the Rifugio Paion at 2250m is the preferred option. You can enjoy a wide range of fantastic freshly cooked Italian food or go for one of the ever popular burgers or bratwurst from the BBQ on the sun terrace. Lunch in the mountains – a truly magical experience in the Val di Fiemme.

Accommodation

Take on the Olympia

Slightly smaller than the other ski areas in the Val di Fiemme we visit the Cermis area towards the end of your ski tour. By that time the groups will be ready to face the monster Olympia run – all 3 parts and 7.2km of it.

Get to the Snow – Fast

The Bellamonte / Alpe Lusia ski area offers skiing on two sides of the mountain. The Bellamonte side is the main starting point for our groups and the wide gentle slopes are accessed by the new fast Castelir gondola cuts the ascent time from 22 minutes down to 8 minutes – getting you on the snow faster than ever. The sweeping blue runs down the mountain offer a superb teaching environment and our professional ski school will ensure that your pupils develop their skills to the best of their ability, with the possibility to spend some time in the snow cross park. Skiers of all levels will love the best ‘home’ run in the valley – at almost 6km long the run from the top of the Campo Laste chairlift down the Zirmes, Le Fassane & Castelir slopes is a cruisers delight and a great leg burner to finish your day.

Challenging Runs and Long Descents

The rolling piste of the La Clune run leads you down to the stunning ‘Trolls Café’ a must see for it’s themed basement restaurant. Take the La Clune lift and head to the Alpe Lusia where you will discover a couple of challenging black runs plus a few testing reds, forming a long descent of almost 4km down to the Moena Gondola. You will also find a few relaxing blue runs plus the fun of another ski cross park.

Accommodation

Vistas and Pizzas

One visit and you too will fall in love with the Beautiful Mountain and discover why so many of our groups put this resort number 1 on their list when they visit the Val di Fiemme. For lunch, no one goes hungry in Bellamonte. The food served at El Zirmo or the Rifugio Bucaneve disappears as fast as it appears, including the enormous cart-wheel pizzas. If you are on the Alpe Luisa side, the Chalet Valbona offers refined dining and the Agri-Bar a more rustic experience that makes it well worth a visit.
