Good conditions in Corvara & Sella Ronda
Reviewed 27 May 2016
We had a very good week with great conditions, there had been a massive dump the week before. I think we chose the best place and week in the Alps! We went around the Sella Ronda a few times and enjoyed the local area. We also went around to Val di Fassa where we had stayed the previous year. Any skier could manage the Sella Ronda, and it’s nice to be able to jump off onto more advanced pistes if you want to. Corvara itself is very good for beginners with some nice big, wide blues.
An excellent area for blue runs and restaurants

I've skied in France and Austria, but after many holidays in Corvara and also Arabba, I now wouldn’t ski anywhere but Italy.
The whole area has a good snow history, lots of restaurants and lots and lots of nice blues. From Corvara, go up to the ‘plateau’ where there’s such a huge expanse of easy skiing, you can ski wherever you like. This means you can get your legs back at the beginning of the week before moving onto the other routes.
The Edelweiss valley in Colfosco is a very pleasant place to ski.
The hidden valley is also worth a detour, you go up the gondola to the top of the valley and ski half way down, where there’s a restaurant (that does an excellent barbeque). At the bottom, there are horses pulling a rope which you pay about 10€ to hook onto and they drop you off on the other side.
Everybody has to do the Sella Ronda, though once you’ve done it you might not do it again as there’s a lot of travelling on tows.
I would also recommend going over to Selva in Val Gardena.
We prefer to use the bar in our hotel, but to experience the ‘boot bop’, ski into Colfosco - there is a big bar at the Post hotel where everyone dances in ski boots.
Food here is fabulous!

The resort itself is really good – I'm not one to return to the same place twice but I would definitely recommend it to someone else.
The food available here is fabulous! There’s a Michelin restaurant on the slopes and a super seafood place round the Sella Ronda (can’t remember the name but it’s wuite famous and everyone local talks about it).
I stayed here with my husband and would recommend it to couples, it looks great for families too as there’s lots of kids stuff there.
My husband is a snowboarder and there were lots of flat bits, so if there are more than one snowboarder looking to go here, they might want to stay somewhere else.
The après ski isn’t mad busy which suited us fine but if you’re after a big party town, you may want to consider staying elsewhere.
