Sellaronda on skis
The Sellaronda is the name of a fascinating ski route that, thanks to ski lifts and snow-covered slopes, takes you over the four Dolomite passes around the Sella massif. This route links the four Ladin valleys: Gardena, Alta Badia, Arabba and Fassa. The tour can be comfortably covered in one day, either clockwise, marked with orange signs, or counter-clockwise, marked in green. In total, the Sellaronda stretches 40 kilometres, 27 of which are ski slopes. In 2020, it received the accolade of ‘best ski tour’ from skiresort.de.
The route is of medium difficulty and requires good physical condition.
Useful tips:
It takes about six hours to complete the entire loop. It is recommended to start by 10 a.m. and to reach the last pass no later than 3.30 p.m. Check the weather forecast in advance, as snowfall and strong winds can lead to the closure of some facilities.
Caution: make sure you are on the last pass by 3.30 p.m., as delays may complicate your return. In case of bad weather, some lifts may be closed.
