Description Ponte di Legno/Tonale/Presena Glacier/Temù (Pontedilegno-Tonale)

From the Brenner-Highway-Exit San Michele you drive about 1 hour up to the Passo Tonale, but it is not so easy to find the right way because some streets have no signs! If you arrive at the boarder between Trentino and Lombardei at 1883m you can see the many lifts from the winter ski resort and the cable car up to the glacier which operates all around the year. With a cable car with gondilas for 15 pers. you float up to Passo Paradiso. Here you can see the disused old double chair from Aleveo Presena and you have a very nice view to the Presena Glacier. Now you take the double chair Paradiso-Presena up to the permanent ice. At 2730m at Ghiacciaio Presena ends the double chair and you can take the glacier lifts. A short t-bar with an easy slope, especially for beginners, is right near the double chair. Two parallel t-bars take you up to Cima Presena in 3016m. Now you can ski or ride the black slope Presena Sinistro on the right side of the lifts down to the lifts. On the left side you have a very wide and intermediate run down to the lifts. Half way down is another short t-bar Maroccaro II with an easy slope. The slopes are relatively steep for a glacier and so advanced skiers have very good possibilities to ski. From Ghiacciaio you can ski down an easy run to Passo Paradiso until summer if there is enough snow, because this run is not on the glacier. In winter you can also ski a steep run down to Passo Tonale...
The winter ski resort Passo Tonale offers nice runs with modern lifts. You can also ski or ride via Ponte di Legno to Temù. About this resort we will also write in one of the next winters...
