Best tips for Cortina d'Ampezzo

There is nowhere quite like Cortina. A famous racing town and host of the 1956 Olympics, it certainly has some serious skiing. But it is also Italy’s most fashionable resort, and many visitors take their lunching and early-evening parading/shopping more seriously than their skiing. The result is that pressure on the slopes is low. No queues, no crowds, pistes rarely reduced to boilerplate by heavy traffic. We have had some of our most enjoyable piste skiing here. And don’t let this talk of fashion put you off. More of the visitors are driving Fords than Ferraris – though we concede few are driving Cortinas. And lodgings need not be expensive: there are more three-star than four-star hotels, and Inghams now run a good-value chalet hotel right on the focal Corso Italia. The scenery is just jaw-droppingly wonderful. The town is ringed by dramatic limestone towers and cliffs, tinged pink at dawn and dusk. We were back here in 2015, and our jaws dropped once again. Cortina is a sizeable town spread across a wide, impossibly scenic bowl. Although it runs World Cup races, it is not a hard-core ski resort – 70% of all Italian visitors don’t step on to the slopes. By 5pm everybody is cruising the Corso Italia in smart gear and laden with big bags containing additional supplies of smart gear. Cortina is pure Italy. The Veneto region has none of the Germanic culture that you’ll find in parts of the Südtirol, only a few miles away. It now attracts more than a few Russians. Within reach to the west is the Alta Badia, with Corvara at one corner of the Sella Ronda circuit – all on the Superski megapass. It can be reached by public bus, but is much easier by tour-op coach, taxi or your own car.

PROS:

  • Magnificent Dolomite setting 
  • Marvellous for novices 
  • Sella Ronda area within reach, just 
  • Attractive, very Italian town

CONS:

  • Modest area of slopes, split into several separate areas 
  • Erratic snow record 
  • Expensive by Italian standards 
  • Still quite a few slow lifts
