Alta Badia Reviews & Ratings

Lots of brilliant runs in this classy resort. Excellent lift service but the resort is pricey but well worth it.

Best long slopes, and modern ski lifts, stunning surrounding views. Mostly Italian people around which means peaceful and enjoyable atmosphere, with elite people access to the slopes due to the costly area. Festive apre ski in the old town in Canazei, with direct access from the slopes end.

We stayed in Colfosco and skied all around the area including the sella ronda.

It was the first time I have skied in Italy and I was very impressed. Great snow over a wide variety of piste, including some lovely tree lined runs. Also lovely to be able to ski between so many interconnected resorts.

Lots of food and drink options on the slopes all great value and good character. We stayed half board as I think many do, so perhaps not lots of restaurants in Colfosco itself for evening meals.

We used a local guide who was fantastic.

Overall highly recommended

On the Sella Ronda, a fantastic ski circuit, Alta Badia offers spectacular scenery you expect from being in the Dolomites, with snow sure and interesting terrain. Apparently the regions snow-making facilities are world class, which means that even early in the season/over Christmas, the snow conditions were brilliant.
With easy access to the Sella Ronda, the routes and ski options are endless. Lots of fabulous mountain restaurants with a great atmosphere.

Great food, unbelievable views, friendly Italian locals. Cheap for a ski resort in terms of food and drink, relatively unbusy, incredible quality runs and snow

Alta Badia is part of Dolomiti Super Ski which is a wonderful group of ski resorts! These resorts are connected by the Sella Ronda which allows you to ski a 22mile circle through the various resorts which include Val Gardena, Arraba etc. skiing the Sella Ronda is a wonderful experience. There are numerous places to eat throughout it. The Sella Ronda, can be done in either direction. It can be completed by a competent intermediate and enjoyed by advanced skiers who may choose more difficult descents. The two main routes are well marked but a guide can be helpful. We loved our trip to this area and I highly recommend it. By the way the food is excellent!!

Intermediate paradise with many beautiful long cruises. Eye watering ly gorgeous views with the most welcoming hosts.

Part of the sella Ronda corvara is a great base to explore the region lots of wel pisted runs.and watering holes and a sense of achievement doing the circuit.

Amazing resort
Alta badia has everything, off piste, powder zones, tree lines, a great terrain park, great groomers and moguls
What makes alta badia great is that it is a part of Dolomites super ski, which is like 10 or so linked resorts (more expensive ski pass) so if you ever get bored of alta badia (highly doubt it), you can explore the others
The sells ronda is a ski route that is great for families and experience skiers, where either clockwise or anticlockwise is a easier or harder route,
The dolomitic super ski area is great, not cheap though

Alta Badia is one of the most breath taking beautiful parts of the world. With a wide variety of runs, of all varying colours and abilities, there is something for everyone in this slice of Italian heaven. Having always gone as part of a family group, there is something much opportunity for all ski abilities to to enjoy, there is a good variety of small, baby and beginner slopes to help the novices hone in their skills, fun parks for all to have some laughs on, and a great amount of challenging, interesting and different runs for the more experienced rider to relish. One of the highlights of the trip when we have been is tackling the Sella Ronda, a navigational challenge following a route of runs and lifts to traverse around the majestic Mt Sella. Alta Badia is fantastic for off piste attractions too. With lost of characterful eateries, bars and villages in each town, there always a good place to take a beat, fill up and stretch off. The selection of food in the area is varied, and delicious, with Austria a few miles north, there is a great variety of Austro-Italian cuisine, not very often you see Pork Schnitzel, and handmade ravioli in the same menu, but you do in Alta Badia, and it makes for a wonderful eating experience.

Whether you are an experienced rider, its your first time on the mountain, or youre in a group with a wide variety of skill and experience. Youll not go wrong booking a trip to Alta Badia in the beautiful South Tyrol region of the Italian Dolomites.

Had a great week staying at the Fanes Hotel which have a great shuttle service to take you directly to the ski lifts in 2 mins. Lots of variation, the sellaronda is a great route to explore the small towns around alta badia

Dolomiti Superski Alta Badia is by far my favorite European resort. From high tech chairlifts to variety of ski runs to beautiful peaks and scenery of Dolomiti mountains to endless dining choices you wont be disappointed. We stayed in Alta Badia and skied/snowboarded around Sella Ronda for a week. This area is covered by IKON pass, so we didnt have to buy tickets. Dining is very inexpensive compared to USA resort. So are the accommodations. Snow conditions were better at higher elevations. We went end of February.

We have stayed in La Villa several times and have loved every time. The atmosphere, ski area and general feel of the area all make it so much more than just a regular ski area. We have now started going with our young son and the ski school and crèche are superb.

Great ski area and part of the huge Dolomiti Superski area! So much snow and slopes to explore. Mountain restaurants are outstanding
We are going back yet again to our favourite ski in ski out hotel in Corvara next February
Cant wait!!!

Massive resort, even bigger with dolomiti superski.
Groomers are nice, apres is alright.
Really nice terrain park, some freeride options

There are too many flat or up-hill pistes. On-piste signage is very confusing. Sella Ronda is very busy.

Some of the most consistent snow in Europe and beautiful scenery to accompany it. Can get busy at peak times but large area disperses crowds quick

I went for the first time in the 2022/2023 season. Although I went quite early on, almost all the runs were open as well as some terrain parks and there was regular snowfall every couple of days.

There are restaurants dotted all over the resort and it is very beginner-friendly with mostly blue and red runs. It is also linked to the Sellaronda, which takes you around 2-3 mountains through different resorts over the course of about half a day.

For the more advanced skiers, there are several black runs available, including the World Cup Gran Risa piste and a tricky glacier nearby.

The lifts and slopes were also very well operated and, even on busy days like Christmas, the queue time was relatively short. The local instructors are also fantastic, many having been former racers with plenty of experience.

Overall, a gem of a resort.
