ITALY - Folgarida-Marilleva
Skiing in the Majestic Brenta Dolomites.
The resort...
Folgarida is located in the Val di Sole surrounded by the mountain ranges
of the Brenta Dolomites, Presanella and Orles-Cevedale ranges.
The village is situated at 1300m amid pine trees and has a range of slopes
for all levels of ability. The lifts and the village have been constructed
in such a way as to blend with the environment and means that there is
very little traffic in the village ensuring a quiet,relaxed atmosphere. The
result is a traditional mountain resort with a modern twist; contemporary
buildings offering a range of accommodation but without the high rise blocks.

intermediate skiers. Its location in a natural snow pocket and about 90% cannon coverage ensure that there need

For beginners ski school is at the mid-station where the snow is always very good. For intermediates there are
