What to expect

You'll start from your hotel and be driven to the ski area, where your guide sets the pace across terrain that winds around some of the Dolomites' most storied mountains. The focus is as much on the landscape's wartime significance—trench positions, supply routes, strategic peaks—as on the skiing itself. Expect a moderate pace with frequent stops for historical context and photography. The day suits confident intermediate skiers comfortable on varied terrain. Your guide handles logistics; you manage your own ski pass purchase and find lunch at mountain restaurants along the way.
