About the area

San Martino di Castrozza - Passo Rolle offers about 40 km of pistes in the Dolomites, and the balance leans clearly towards easier skiing: 19 km of blue runs make up 47% of the terrain, with only 3 km of black (7%). That mix suits beginners and families well, helped by a magic carpet for first turns and five gondola or cable-car lifts, so small children never have to load a moving chairlift. Confident intermediates have 18 km of red pistes to work through; committed experts will find the steep offering thin.

The 22 lifts include 4 gondolas, 1 cable car, 12 chairlifts, 4 platters and the carpet, spread between the San Martino slopes and the higher Passo Rolle sector. Skiing runs from 1,401 m up to 2,351 m, so the upper runs hold snow better than the valley pistes. The area is part of Dolomiti Superski, which broadens the lift-pass options.
