This area, in the Trentino-Alto Adige Region (the South Tyrol) and the neighbouring Veneto, is close to the Austrian border, and there is a strong German/Austrian influence throughout. When it comes to skiing, Dolomites offer just as much, if not more, than many other European or North American ski vacation destinations. The Dolomites mountain range offer some of the most breathtaking views north of the Mediterranean, and you can enjoy them from just about anywhere. In our offer you you will find many resorts and hotels that offer luxury accommodation and will facilitate all of your skiing needs. If you are going to ski in Italy, Dolomites is where you can find the best action at the lowest rates! Winter Holidays Skiing, ski mountaineering, cross country skiing, winter hiking with snowshoes, off-piste skiing, telemark, ice skating, sledging and all other activities that involve sliding over snow have always belonged to the Dolomites rich patrimony. For more than a century the Dolomites have been one of the most developed and historically important centres for winter sports in the world. The Dolomites offer perfect pistes for all levels, evocative cross country circuits, impressive ice stadiums, some of the most beautiful ski mountaineering itineraries in the Alps, short walks and long winter hikes, breathtaking off-piste descents and an infinite number of other possibilities that include all the valleys in the Dolomites. Skiing The Dolomiti Superski carousel is the jewel in the crown of what’s on offer in the Dolomites: 1200 km of pistes, 460 lifts and 475 interconnected pistes. A single ski pass is all that is needed for this immense 12 valley winter carousel. It's just waiting there to be discovered!

Italian hotels are different, and we have to aver that that’s no bad thing. The British and American holidaymaker has a pretty clear idea of what is suggested by the word ‘hotel’. Let’s go further: you could stay in a Hilton, Holiday Inn or Marriott anywhere on the planet and you are guaranteed a reliably similar experience. And that’s fine if you go on holiday to enjoy ‘similar experiences’. But perhaps you’re after something a little more distinct, a little more local and idiosyncratic. An Italy hotel is unlikely to be quite as homogenized as its UK or US counterpart, and though a blessing to our mind, it can lead to some confusion as to what exactly you’ll get from your hotel in Italy. So let’s explain some terminology. There is the locanda, which traditionally meant a very basic Italian hotel (though it can also, oddly, be somewhere quite fancy). An ‘albergo in Italia’ is, in fact, a ‘hotel in Italia’, so no confusion there then. Then there is the pensione, which nowadays can be taken as synonymous with an Italy hotel. You may well see accommodation labelled as a 'residence' - again, these are often hotels in all but name. 31 December 2008 22:39:43 GMT http://www.skiingitaly.net/ski_hotels.html SkiingItaly.net The Hotel Gonzaga has apartments from 42 m² to 52 m²; panoramic, comfortable and quiet, with 3-4-5 beds, separate and fully equipped kitchen, dishes and cutlery, table cloth, linen, face towels, fridge, satellite TV, radio, wi-fi hot-spot internet connection, direct phone. 31 December 2008 22:39:43 GMT http://www.skiingitaly.net/ski_apartments_sellaronda.html SkiingItaly.net Passo Pordoi is located between the Sella group in the north and the Marmolada group in the south.
