Val di Fassa, Dolomiti SuperSki

Val di Fassa lies in the heart of the Dolomites, 300km (185 miles) from Milan. Located in the 20km-long Fassa valley, it boasts some of the most stunning scenery in Europe. Farming is a major industry here and the ancient language of Ladin is still spoken in the area. Val di Fassa's skiing is linked into the vast Dolomiti Superski lift pass, which also includes the Sella Ronda circuit. Canazei and Campitello are the access points for the circuit, which can take around five hours to complete. There is terrain to suit all levels of ability and the choice and standard of restaurants is much raved about.
