•
World's biggest ski area
•
Superb 3 star hotel
•
Gorgeous scenery
We can argue about which ski area is the world's
best, but at 1,200kms the Superski Dolomiti is certainly
the world's biggest! Much of this is "marketing
mileage" though, because the areas don't link
with the seemless integrity of the big French circuits,
but the Val di Fassa is very much the real thing.
The skiing is simply magnificent. The runs are unique
in their variety, the grooming is meticulous, and
the snowmaking, like everything else here, is the
best.
As far as the views are concerned, visitors are
simply dumb-struck by the beauty of the Dolomite
panorama. It's a "must" on every skier's
itinerary. From our hotel, you join the lifts at
Vigo or Pozza, or 10mins further is Campitello,
an entry point to the Sella Ronda.
This valley is very pretty and traditional and has
the unique atmosphere of the Sudtirol which was
part of Austria until 1918, so visitors enjoy a
little Teutonic efficiency with their Latin Dolce
Vita.

Hotel Avisio 3* (Cap 90)
• Excellent food
• Free use of facilities
• All room with private
facilities
This
terrific 3 star hotel is built in modern chalet style and
located in the Historic Centre of Soraga, a pretty village
about 15mins from Canazei. You can pick up the Sella Ronda
lifts here, or at Campitello, 5mins nearer. We strongly recommend
also using your coach (or free ski bus) to the other areas
of the Val di Fassa because they are all brilliant and so
accessible. 
The
hotel Avisio is nicely appointed and equipped. All rooms have
private bath or shower, TV, hairdryer, telephone and balcony.
The food is excellent. Candle-lit gala meals are available
at extra cost. The fitness club and other facilities are all
free except for the sun-bed.
