Expansive skiing opportunities

You won't be short of pistes here. The Dolomites Superski area offers 1,200kms of skiing against the extraordinary backdrop of UNESCO Heritage Site Dolomite mountains.

The Marmolada Glacier means snow-sure pistes and the charming villages surrounding the popular Sellaronda circuit are the perfect place to stop off for an aperitif or a warming hot chocolate.

Simple slope access

Access to the slopes is simple from Hotel Dolomites Inn, the Ciampac gondola takes skiers to explore the stunning runs on the Colac mountain while the adjacent Col di Rossi cable car transports you right on to the Sellaronda circuit.

The lifts are located 1km from the hotel and the local ski bus stops outside the hotel regularly. The ski bus pass is included free of charge with your stay at the Hotel Dolomites Inn.

The other Val Di Fassa resorts are within easy reach too. Charming Alba is just 1km away and lively Canazei is 3km away so you can experience the great nightlife Val di Fassa has to offer by hopping on a bus or in a taxi.

Wellness area

Where to stay in Val di Fassa

Canazei

As one of the largest villages in the Fassa valley, you won't be short of accommodation to choose from in Canazei. Val di Fassa is famous for Italian hospitality. Delicious restaurants serving local, home-cooked cuisine are in abundance. You can expect a lively après ski scene in and around resort, plus plenty of traditional culture and history in the area. The location couldn't be more perfect as the village is situated just below a forest of snow-covered trees and above that is the towering peaks of the almighty Dolomites. In the centre of the village, the Belvedere gondola is the gateway to the famous Sella circuit.

The closest hamlet just down the road is Alba, sat at the foot of the Marmolada and Sella. Here you will find the Col dei Rossi cable car which links directly onto the Sellaronda, so very convenient for the diehard skier.

Slightly further along the valley is Penia, a small but stunning area which is a suntrap for bluebird days. Between the two areas is the Ciampac 10-seater cable car which at the top has some of the most spectacular views of the Colac area. This is a quiet paradise for intermediate and advanced skiers with runs heading out towards the village of Pozza where you can access the quiet slopes of Rosengarten. Penia has access to the Sellaronda circuit too by the Col di Rossi cable car located between Alba and Penia.

The last village to mention is nestled in the middle of the valley, Campitello, sitting to the west of Canazei, is perfect for those looking for a traditional and more relaxed location with direct access onto the mountain via the Col Rodella cable car.

Bars and restaurants in Val di Fassa

Canazei’s centre has shops, terrace cafes, and a unique indoor water park and spa centre, Dòlaondes. Everyone can enjoy the facilities here with six pools, one of which is outdoors and has breath-taking views of the surrounding mountains.
