I was there, last march, residing in Ortisei. The feeling you get when you are in the first gondola arriving up on Seceda with blue sky, its undescribable... you just get goosembumps! The scenery is breathtaking, the runs are amazing. The size of the ski area is craaazy. I once went from Seceda to Alta Badia, Marmolata Glacier and Seiser Alm in one day. Also concerning crowded ski runs, stay off the main sellaronda circuit, those get packed and have mguls very erly in the day. Also a trip to Lagazuoi is a must-do if you're there. The ski runs that I admired the most (in the whole sellaronda area) are: La Longia; Gardenissima; Seiser Alm Florian 34; Seiser Alm Pilat; Seiser Alm Spitzbühl Seiser Alm Punta d'Oro 2; Marmolata; Corvara Forcelles; Lagazuoi-Armentarola; Vallon; Alta Badia Pista Del Sole; Alta Badia Pralongia 2; Alta Badia Gran Risa; Alta Badia Piz Sorega A

Amazing video Val Gardena is the best ski resort in Italy. I was there in summer and in winter too, it is the most beautiful place I´ve been.👍

Nothing beats it! Freeride options a bit limited but other than that, it's definitely the best in the world. I've snowboarded and skied in almost all the main resorts in Italy going from the Dolomites to the Cervino (Matterhorn) and Mont Blanc, I've also been to a few resorts in Switzerland and France (and even in New Zealand) and I've never been to any other place that is so good with lifts and runs and where the views constantly leave you in awe. Speechless, every time I go back I'm just speechless. Again not even the view of the Matterhorn from the top of Plateau Rosà can beat Ortisei and Val Gardena.

do you recommend Dolomites super ski pass for a family of four (with just about intermediate skill level) or just the Val Gardena + Alpe di Siusi area is good enough already for a 10 days ski?
@luca_berna Жыл бұрын
Hey there, I live in Ortisei, Val gardena. If you rush the slopes all day long, you can see all of the valgardena skipass in 3 days. One day you do Seiser Alm/Alpe di siusi. Another day Passo gardena and passo sella. If you really plan to ski for 10 days then go for the Dolomiti Superskipass. And thank you for visiting us! :) @@terencetcf

Thanks @@luca_berna . Usually I spend at least 5-6 hours a day on the slopes, so I guess I probably will seen most Val Gardena in few days? Only thing is some of family members are not that good on skiing (they are comfortable on blue routes but find it hard on the red routes), so just not sure if just doing blue/green, would that stlil feasible to get the Superskipass? If yes, what are the recommended routes? We will be staying at val gardena st cristina from mid December
@sergiogaggioni2429 Жыл бұрын
@@terencetcf definitely the dolomiti Superski...the sellaronda offers an incredible variety when it comes to terrains and views... definitely worth exploring and it's definitely not for advanced skiers... intermediate will love it, if you only do Val Gardena you might get bored in 3-5 days and Alpe di Siusi, unless you hit the big half pipes it's definitely only for the views and beginner skiers, as a boarder I hate Alpe di Siusi....its very very flat.... you'll be doing a lot of pushing and skating even on skis

This entire region was captured by Google Earth in full 3D photogrammetry for use in Google Earth VR. And, there was snow on the ground when captured. That means you can actually pretend ski almost every slope seen in this video and all the others. Yes, you can go down the slopes right on the ground in 3D - VR and on snow besides. Sometimes you can see other ski tracks. For added realism you can go back and forth sideways and lean while you do that. And since it is fully immersive 3D you get the realism of the all the upcoming bumps, drops, and scenery below. I've done all of these things many times. Also pretend riding all the ski lifts and cable cars is another thrill beyond compare except for the real thing. Again all in fully immersive 3D. Very few ski areas in the world are captured in 3D this way and with snow on the ground too. My favorite is to start at Seceda as is the favorite shown here in this video. I also like the winding back run from there to Ortisei. Few people realize that this is what you can actually do with VR. I use an Oculus Rift but Google Earth VR does not run on the Quest 2 without using a PC. It is a Windows based program.

Was there last year and loved it! The views are amazing everywhere, and so are the restaurants. But as an intermediate skier I have to say that at the end of the day the slopes on the Sella Ronda runs got very rough (for me atleast lol). It is also VERY crowded all day long. I found that doing slopes that aren't on the Sella Ronda circle was way more fun, especially the Seiser Alm.

@SkiResortsVideo11 ай бұрын
If this is the case i recommend you to go to ski resort in Austria like Flachau, Skiwelt and Schladming. most runs in Val gardena are higher than 1800 metere.at least the first part of them. but i highly recommend you to drive there to see the beautiful area. Alp Siusi has a lot of low altitude slopes , as well as Alta Badia.

Excellent review. I have always found that in the Alps, there are broadly 3 elements to assess a ski resort: natural beauty, culture (which includes the architecture of the villages, food, apres-ski and overall vibes) and the physical characteristics of the mountains. The Dolomites are pretty extraordinary on the first two counts. But natural beauty doesn't necessarily equate with top ski slopes. Some mountains are just better than others for skiing than others. And the Dolomites, with their vertical rock peaks, are not ideal. On the third criteria, the best area on this planet is the Tarentaise Valley in France (Courchevel, Meribel, Val-Thorens, Les Arcs, La Plagne). There, it's almost as if God had created these mountains for skiing. However, these resorts score less well on criteria 1 and 2. The best combination IMHO is Switzerland, particulary Zermatt and St-Moritz.

@@sylvaincroissant7650 In this case you are right. But Austro Hungry was not Austria, so South Tyrol was never a part of Austria. And long ago and also today South Tyrol was and is a melting pott of different cultures and was oriented also to the south. Because during winter it was very difficult to cross the alps in the direction north. For South Tyrol it is much better to be a part of Italy then a part of todays Austria
