School ski trips to Folgarida
Folgarida offers everything for a great school ski trip – a large ski area, good lifts, terrific scenery, superb hotels and friendly people. We think it’s one of the best ski circuits in Europe, and our groups love the large, combined ski area and genuinely friendly locals, who create a welcoming atmosphere in town. A purpose-built resort, Folgarida’s shops, bars and après-ski amenities are all on hand.
Features
Known for its gentle and scenic blue runs, beginners get great value from their lift passes at Folgarida Marilleva ski areas. Manageable moguls and the potential for huge mileage give intermediates plenty to play with and, with interlinking blues and reds criss-crossing the ski area, this is a perfect resort for mixed ability groups.
More advanced skiers can take on the challenging reds and blacks, with pretty tree-lined runs leading the way through stunning scenery of the Brenta Dolomites.
