Slope offering, variety of runs at the ski resort Alta Badia
The Alta Badia ski area is perfect for those who appreciate the finer things. Gentle and intermediate slopes dominate the landscape. You’ll find many easy runs on treeless hillsides between La Brancia, Pralongià, and Cherz. The challenging Gran Risa run, which hosts annual World Cup races, leads down to La Villa. The descents to San Cassiano, La Villa, and Corvara pass through forest clearings in their lower sections. You definitely shouldn’t miss the runs at Piz Sorega, Pralongià, Sponata, and Santa Croce. The unique landscape is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Sella Ronda also passes through Alta Badia. This exceptional tour around the Sella massif directly connects the slopes with the ski regions of Gröden (Val Gardena), Fassa Valley, and Arabba/Marmolada.
