About this trip

Ski Italy’s Dolomites, Visit the Winter Olympics and Celebrate at the Venice Carnival

There are many ways to experience Italy’s spectacular Dolomites Mountains and to savor the traditions and culture of the four Ladin valleys of Badia, Gherdëina, Fascia, and Fodom. But no doubt the best way is to ski using the Sellaronda ski lift carousel. The natural beauty of this mountain world will catch your eye and take your breath away. You will never forget that vast ski area with its gourmet restaurants overlooking the valleys. Sella Ronda is a circular ski route leading around the mighty Sella massif and offering 26 km of downhill trails in a single day. Whet your appetite for the culinary discovery of the four course Italian dinners, included in the package and après-ski with delicious Tyrolean beer. Explore Val Gardena mountain village, its history and traditions with friends from the Ski Club and – if you want even more fun and adventure - join a post-ski trip to Venice for the Carnival.
