RESORT-

Folgarida 1300, Folgarida 1400, Marilleva and Madonna di Campligio make up this ski area. With over 180km of mixed slopes offers schools the best variety of skiing possible. Such variety helps beginners find their ski legs and get the most out of their ski lessons during their trip. The modern lift system links the resort to the rest of the ski area, but most importantly as we are in the Dolomites, you get the best scenic views for the perfect Ski Trip Pic!

Each element of our tour was great, the planning and structure by GB Sports Tours ran smoothly throughout and catered for our requirements both quickly and effectively. Overall a fantastic tour
