Visiting Cortina last year, we somehow fall in love with the Dolimiti mountains. And as we\u2019re living in Graz, it\u2019s pretty convenient to take an advantage of it\u2019s proximity to Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For this year\u2019s skiing vacation from 22nd<\/sup> of February to 1st<\/sup> of March we decided for Dolomiti Superski resort of Alta Badia and reserved an apartment called La Varela at the Maso Ranch, just above the Badia Abtai village. At that time, we didn\u2019t know, we are coming just into the middle of the great mountain people culture, named Ladin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are 2 long slopes in Alta Badia with new modern lifts reaching to Unesco site Sas dla Crusc (2907m) with Santa Croce on its foot. Wonderful rocky massive, stretching wide just opposite of our apartment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In few minutes\u2019 drive, you soon arrive to Corvara, Colfosco, La Villa or San Cassiano places forming the spectacular Alta Badia ski resort offering more than 150 beautiful ski slopes. Also very well known for Sella Ronda \u2013 a 44km long skiing circuit (covering 23km of slopes) around Piz Boe (3150m) peak family. Sella Ronda also joins Alta Badia resort with Arabba – Marmolada, Val Di Fassa, Cortina D\u2019Ampezzo and Gardena. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Obviously in this stunning Dolomiti nature, having just perfect conditions, we did not hesitate and ride as much as we could. Starting on Sunday by 34km, MO 36km, TU 37km, resting on Wednesday then TH 34km, FR 28km and 42km on Saturday we recorded and ultimate all time record within 1 week of 211 slope kms! What a performance, absolutely amazing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Visiting Cortina last year, we somehow fall in love with the Dolimiti mountains.
