The Skiers' Guide to Pontedilegno - Tonale

I went with school and it was really fun, the ski school and hire is very good. There was a wide variety of of runs across different areas and lots to explore so I would recommend it to others.

Had a lovely family ski trip with beginners and intermediates. The resort offers a wide range of blue and reds, with a few black on the glacier too. Very family friendly and never felt overcrowded. Would definitely recommend for someone looking for an easier resort with a few harder opportunities for those looking to progress their skiing.

Great for families, the restaurant up the top is brilliant. Best pizzas and goulash. Fair prices for coffees etc after the bottom of slopes. We were half board so not sure what eating out in the evenings are like. Quite a quiet resort more suited to families

Lovely quiet resort at height so generally snow sure. Apres is there if you want it but not in your face. Efficient lifts and generally quiet

As a nervous newbie, this resort was great - though the long blue run always seemed busy, the shorter red run wasn’t popular, so gave an opportunity to have a play (and fall) without fear of getting in anyone’s way, whilst also experiencing a more challenging route.
The bombardinos are an awesome warming treat!
We stayed at Hotel Bleis in Ponte di Legno. The hotel was nice enough. The village was adorable. Wonderful wine bar right on the river with complimentary tasty snacks with every round.

Went here with my two teenage girls that are int skiers and me who is pretty basic! I had lessons every morning in the brilliant ski school where we had loads of laughs. There was lots of runs to progress to for beginners but also great runs to keep the girls happy. Even a blue run up on the glacier. Some fun parties but not crazy apres. Great resort for families. We loved it.

3rd family Christmas in Passo tonale and it is such a beginner and family friendly resort. Pistes were fabulous. Wr had beautiful sunny days and 2 half days of snow. Food at our hotel was good. Mountain restaurants are excellent and reasonable. Music on 2 of the nights was fun. Fabulous bar with 6euro Aperol Spritz. Kids loved the hot chocolates and adults enjoyed the Bombardinos. Hopefully we will be back.

Small family friendly resort. Variation of slopes but mostly beginner.
Town is sleepy and busses aren’t brilliant

I really enjoyed it it was my first time ever skiing. I went with my school and there was lots of different runs with cool side jumps

A nice little resort - quiet, good value, great food. Limited amount of pistes for advanced skiers. Some excellent guided off-piste available.

Spent a week here (skiing 2nd-7th of Feb) in the Grand Hotel Paradiso. We were only a very short walk up some stairs from the bottom of the lifts, or a short walk down the road to the gondola to the glacier. The resort was pretty busy on the Sunday but lift queues were still okay and was then quiet enough during the week, I don't recall spending too long in any queues. In comparison, we got the coach one day to the nearby Madonna di Campiglio resort and that was incredibly busy wherever we went, so if you have the choice between the two I'd favor this resort.
The black run from the top of the glacier is a highlight, wonderful to ski on a morning, steep but fairly wide, great for getting low in a long carve.
We also got the chance to see the sunset from the top at 3000m as they opened the lifts at 6am one morning (I think this happens once a month but I'm not sure - worth checking if you're deciding which week to go! )
We didn't get a chance to try out one of the off-piste trails marked on the resort map, but from what we could see they looked like they would've been amazing. My friends who sampled the bars for apre also seemed to have a great time and Italian resorts always seem to be a little cheaper than French ones in my experience which is a nice bonus.

I didn't find any proper mogul runs to do which was a shame, but that's a minor issue, especially with plenty of challenging but accessible and fun terrain to the side of many of the pistes.

Good resort, would go again.

Great resort for learners, also plenty of varied terrain for more advanced snowboarders and skiers. Really snow sure due to altitude, nice and quiet except on the weekends when the locals are out, but even then it's not that busy! Good value food and booze, fast lifts

Great family friendly ski resortAccess to lots of slopes for beginners direct from the village that can easily be viewed by non skiersGlacier skiing available via 2 lifts direct to the top. 2 great slopes on top.Some great tree lined slopes down the valley available from the top resort of Passo

Loved this resort, great hotel although slightly out the way to explore the nightlife. Great shining and after ski activities for teenagers, Skidoo weee a blast kids loved it, skidoo up the slopes to a cafe for the best ever hot chocolate.Love Italy and this I highly recommend

Well prepared and quite resort, no lines to the lifts, I would call it a family oriented resort. Great runs, not crowded at all. Not existing apres ski unfortunately and small choice of restaurants. Hard to get unless have a car or transfer form the hotel.

We had 2 great experiences in Ponte do Legno, great variety of pistes, great lift staff, easy to get to with hire car, lovely people in village, great scenery!!

Overall a great resort good for all levels families and couples , restaurants and bars only busy on weekends apres ski was ok would recommend

Great little resort for the family, offering fantastic views and easy to navigate resort. Easy connections to neighbouring resorts. Just enough to keep the advanced rider entertained i would say, but if the family is happy - I'm happy.

I went the week before the Christmas holidays so the resort was fairly quiet. Queues for the lifts were basically none existent except on the bottom lifts next to the ski school but even those moved quickly. It definitely started picking up in business as we headed towards Christmas. We had really good snow cover, all the pistes were open and we had 2 days of fresh powder. There was plenty of variety to the runs you could do so something to suit everyone. There was even a blue run (as well as red and black) on the glacier to give everyone a chance at glacier skiing! The resort is on the smaller side. It's easy to walk from one end to the other and there's a lot of little shops and a few bars along the way. I'd say it's probably not the most apres orientated resort in terms of partying but there's plenty of places to eat and drink as a break from skiing. I saw a lot of families and it was definitely a good resort from them. A solid choice for a relaxing break away with decent skiing.

Head to Ponte di Legno for quieter runs and more challenging reds/blacks. If using the ski school, get a hotel in the centre of Passo Tonale - the walk from the other end of town is a pain.
