The Sella Ronda has been
revolutionized over the last few years by heavy investment in both the lift
system and artifcial snowmaking. Both are now among the best and most extensive
in Europe. Add extraordinarily picturesque Dolomite
scenery, a lift pass that
covers over 460 lifts and 1200km of runs, cheap Italian prices and jolly mountain
refuges, and you have a compelling case for visiting.
Only experts who find a lack of challenging runs frustrating will be disappointed
with the slopes. If what you want is a feeling of traveling around great scenery,
there's little to beat the Sella Ronda - a trip around the Gruppo Sella massif,
easily covered in a day by an average intermediate. On the way round you will
hit many separate local slopes worth exploring - but also crowds and queues.If
you don't want to stay in Selva, there are plenty of smaller, quiet, attractive
places on the circuit to base yourself in..
