The real beauty of this area in the Val di Sole is the reliability of the snow. Passo Tonale is a high-altitude ski resort with a great snow record, extensive snowmaking facilities and a glacier, making it an excellent choice for an early or late ski tour.

On the slopes

Tonale is the one of the highest Italian resorts - situated high atop a mountain pass, the season here usually lasts from November until late April, and skiing is guaranteed all season-long on the Presena glacier! An extensive ski network of 30 lifts serve 100km of piste and the resort enjoys excellent links to both the glacier, by a cable car carrying up to 1,800 skiers per hours, and the town of Ponte di Legno in the valley below. The resort offers superb progression from sunny, wide open nursery slopes served by seven drag lifts at village level to the longer more challenging runs higher up. From the half-way point of the Negritella chairlift, the intermediate who takes the 4-seater chairlift to Cima Bleis will be rewarded with a long 4.5km run in spectacular scenery. For a great tree-lined cruise, try the delightful 6km run down to Ponte di Legno. For the advanced skier, the southern ski area of Passo Tonale provides some exhilarating challenges and highs – 3,016m to be exact! From the top of the glacier there is a choice of fast reds and blacks.

Off the slopes

There is an ice-skating rink, a disco and an interesting variety of shops and bars in Passo Tonale. The nearby Ponte di Legno swimming pool is approximately €3 on presentation of your lift pass. Coach transport is at extra cost for these activities.
