Italy buying snow

Welcome to the Ski Italy page, providing a regular round-up of the skiing conditions and current snow reports for the main ski resorts in the Dolomites and Italian Alps. Over recent years some of the most favourable piste conditions throughout the season have been reported at Cervinia, Cortina , Val Senales, La Thuile and Livigno although in any given week or season the best slope conditions may be found at any of the other high Italian resorts or at lower elevation ski stations among the trees in poor weather. For off-piste powder, resorts such as Selva Gardena, Livigno , Chiesa , Madesimo , Arabba have proven among the most consistent either for fairly regular snowfalls, northerly aspect or for not getting tracked out quickly but check out the reports below for the latest news. This policy means that secret snow spots are very well guarded but check out friendly snowboard shops for some useful advice. While the snowfalls experienced by most Italian ski resorts are generally no match for those resorts on the northern side of the Alps they feature strongly in the record snowfall events for most seasons. Italy is more temperate than its northern neighbours and the tree line often reaches over m, which is great skiing or boarding in flat light. You can ski Italy in almost every part of the country too, with resorts offering cross-border skiing in to Slovenia in the North East, as well as ski areas inland from Rome in the south of the central mainland and in the Apennine mountains further north. One of the most famous areas, the Via Lattea, or Milky Way, in the North West of the country, was host to most of the on-snow events for the Torino Winter Olympics. In the north eastern side of the country the Dolomiti Superski region contains more than 50 individual ski villages spread between a dozen valleys which together offer more than 1,km of piste. The Dolomiti Superski area is one of the largest passes in the world and remains the biggest to offer a fully inter-changable lift pass from day one larger coverage areas that have developed recently in Austria have more usage restrictions. This is a famous 23km circuit around the huge Sella mountain massif from which valleys radiate off, such as the famous Val Gardena , as well as Badia — famous for its gourmet food, and Fassa. Altogether more than km of piste is linked, putting it ahead of the Milky Way. The price saving is most marked on the shared ski area of Cervinia in Italy and Zermatt in Switzerland which can be skied for substantiually less if you buy your pass on the Italian rather than the Swiss side.

At a mountain resort with no real snow, skiing faces a total wipe-out

Italy buying snow

A popular ski resort in central Italy is lying idle this winter, with businesses and residents blaming climate change for spring-like temperatures that have left entire mountains snowless. Ski-lifts are switched off and snow cannon lie abandoned on the grass of Mount Terminillo, which soars 2, metres 7, feet high in the Apennines and is normally a favourite destination of skiers from Rome. This year the shops and bars are nearly all closed, with no one coming to rent equipment or buy a hot drink on the way to the slopes. Not only has it never snowed, but the high temperatures have even made it impossible to produce artificial snow using cannon, Regnini told Reuters. Rising temperatures threaten the skiing industry worldwide but Italy, with its many relatively low-altitude resorts in the Apennines as well as the Alps, is particularly badly affected. Around Terminillo, which normally offers more than 9 kilometres of slopes less than kilometres 62 miles from Rome, the locals are afraid that skiing and the business it brings will become a memory of the past.
