Campitello – 5 Day Ski Itinerary Campitello – 5 Day Ski Itinerary Easy Medium Hard Day 1: The Local Fields - Grade: From either Campitello or Canazei ski lifts explore the local ski areas of Col Rodella (Campitello) and Belvedere (Canazei). Both fields offer intermediate terrain with a few steep sections that are easy to see. There are some wonderful long runs with the best being the run to the valley from the cable car at Col Rodella. You can ski to the village of Canazei from both fields. If you want to follow the sun, it is best to ski Col Rodella in the morning and Belvedere in the afternoon. Both ski areas are connected by a telecabine (lift numbers 155 and 105) and so access is easy. Highlights The skiing: From Belvedere make sure you ski down to the Pordoi pass and take the lift to Sass Pordoi for a spectacular view of the dolomites. Sass Pordoi featured in the film Cliff Hanger. You should not ski down from here – all of the runs from the top are off piste, unpatrolled and extremely dangerous. Take the cable car back down and ski. Eating: There are a number of great places to eat on the mountain. Our favourites are Tita Piaz and Ciampolin at Belvedere and Rifugio Des Alpes and Salei on Col Rodella. Stop before 1pm to beat the crowds – Italians religiously stop for lunch at this time. Apres Ski: The round bar at Des Alpes in the afternoon. If you're skiing back to Canazei, make sure you leave before the slopes close. Day 2: Ski Val Gardena - Grade: Val Gardena – the home of the world cup downhill piste is also an easy first tour from the Fassa Valley. Head to the Sella Pass – follow the orange Sella Ronda signs and then ski down into the Gardena Valley. There are stunning views of the Sella Group and the Sasso Lungo from the top of the valley. Take the first chair lift to Piz Seteur. Don't be tempted to ski over the ridge, instead ski down from the lift and take the piste on the left half way down the slope for the run into Plan de Gralba and the Piz Sella Cable car. You could easily spend the day exploring the runs in this area, including the side trip to Monte Pana which is worth while. When heading back, aim to be on the Sella Pass by 3pm, as the lifts can get crowded in the afternoon with everyone coming home. Downhill extension - Grade: If you want the ski the Val Gardena downhill piste, it starts at the top of the Ciampinoi cable car from the village of Selva (check your map as there are 2 possible routes). The run continually veers left first to Sorches and then finishes at Santa Christina lift station. It is worth doing this run a few times, as well as the variant from Sorches, which goes past the Fischburg Castle. We suggest you start heading back by 1.30pm. The return route is by Ciampinoi, Plan de Gralba and the Sella Pass. Highlights The skiing: The world cup downhill piste is a must do for advanced skiers. The variant past the Fischburg castle is spectacular also. Eating: Morning tea at the top of Piz Seteur or the Piz Sella cable car in fine weather is breathtaking. Virtually all of the on slope restaurants are good but we tend to stay away from the restaurants at the top of the cable car stations at lunch time as they can be crowded and noisy. Apres Ski: Piz Seteur has a number of bars that get the sun in the afternoon. Rifugio Piz Seteur at the top of the lift is worth a look as you pass by but can be very crowded. Day 3: The Fassa Valley - Grade: This trip takes you up and over the southern side of the Fassa Valley. You start by catching a bus from the Campitello cable car station up the valley to the Ciampac cable car station. Take the Ciampac cable car to the top for one of the best runs in the valley – the Pista del Boaco. This is a black run so check the conditions from the cable car on the way up. A quad chair takes you from the top of the cable car to the highest point on the field. You can easily spend 1–2 hours skiing both sides of the ridge here. Moving on, make your way over to Sella Brunech and the Bufare ski area. There are several excellent runs here, but the best is the Val San Nicolo run down to Pozza. From here a free bus will take you to the Ciampedie ski area. This is a small compact area with varied runs. Try the Tomba run (black) and the run down to the cable car station in Pozza. You can either ski the reverse from here to head home or ski down to Pera to pick up the free valley ski bus – check the times at the tourist info office in Campitello before you leave in the morning. Highlights The skiing: The Pista del Bosco under the Ciampac cable car, the run from the top of Bufare to Pozza (cabin lift station). Eating: Morning tea in the sun at the Bufare ski area. Lunch at Rifugio Ciampedie. Apres Ski: Afternoon tea at the Rifugio Ciampac in the afternoon sun. Day 4: Sella Ronda - Grade: The Sella Ronda is a circular trip around the Sella Group. You can do the trip either clockwise or anticlockwise. The route is well signposted, the clockwise in orange signs and the anticlockwise in green signs. The Sella Ronda map which you can get from the ticket office is essential. The runs are probably a bit steeper and longer in the clockwise direction and a bit more leisurely in the anticlockwise direction. The town of Corvara is approximately half way round and you should aim to be back in the Fassa valley no later than 4pm. Highlights The skiing: If you have time, make sure you ski the small valley (Stella Alpina) at Colfosco. There are some great runs here and breathtaking views of the Alta Badia region. Eating: If possible lunch at the Post Hotel at Corvara is well worth the effort of finding it. Book and be there by 12.30 to beat the crowds. Day 5: Arabba and the Marmolada - Grade: This is a hard day with a lot of vertical meters and you need to start as soon as the lifts open. Make sure you check the weather forecast and lift status before you leave. From the Campitello cable car, ski across to the Belvedere ski area and then from the top of the Sass Bece lift, ski down to the village of Arabba. Take the cabin lift to the mid station and then follow the series of lifts and pistes to Passo Pardon. From the top of the pass it is a long ski down to the cable car for the Marmolada at Malga Ciapela. Just follow the signs and the other skiers. The cable car to the top of the Marmolada is in 3 stages. You can stop to visit the free museum after the second stage but be careful as skis have gone missing from here. The views from the top of the Marmolada are nothing short of breathtaking. The ski down is long and most will want to stop and take in the views. The return to Campitello involves taking the Capana Bill chair at the bottom of the Marmolada back up to Passo Pardon and then following the pistes/lifts back to Arabba. If you are exhausted at this stage, you can take a taxi to the Pont de Vauz from the main road in Arabba. From here there are lifts all the way back to Belvedere ski are and Campitello. Alternatively, take the table car all the way to the top of Arabba and ski the piste to Pont de Vauz. You need to make sure that you are back in the Belvedere ski area by 4pm at the latest. Highlights The skiing: Without doubt the run down the Marmolada is one you will never forget. If you have time a side trip to the Sottoguda gorge is highly recommended. Eating: There are some great spots to stop. Highly recommended are the Rifugio at the top of Arabba, the Rifugio at Passo Pardon and Bar Maria at the top of the Pordoi Pass. .

  • The Grand Tour
    The Grand Tour IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT EPIC ROADS... March 26th - 28th, 2021 IT’S AN EXTRAORDINARY CULINARY EXPERIENCE for the most demanding gourmets NORBERT NIEDERKOFLER St. Hubertus With 3 Michelin stars, the St. Hubertus Restaurant is the pride of the Hotel & Spa Rosa Alpina. With only 11 tables, it is as exclusive as it is elegant. It was born in 1996 and owes its name to the Saint protector of hunters. The dining experience is best summed up in the words of chef Norbert Niederkofler: “The variety comes from mixing simplicity. The best product is the basic assumption. I put my effort in respecting the product and enhance it using the right cooking method. The result must be “visible” both in the taste and in its aesthetic, it must be delicate and simple but still surprising. The lightness can be seen and tasted”. Photo of Norbert and Luigi prior to Covid19 PAOLO DONEI Malga Panna The chef Paolo Donei was awarded with a Michelin star when he was only 19 years old and has maintained it for over 20 years thanks to his authentic cooking, that respects the traditions of Trentino and the nature surrounding the Malga Panna restaurant.

  • 2021 Giro Virtuale Ride Report 210602
    Giro d’Italia Virtuale 2021 had not given much thought to a 2021 Giro d’Italia Virtuale until I was contacted out of the blue via LinkedIn the week before the real Giro I started. “Are you the Pike Talbert who created the Fulgaz Giro d'Italia Virtuale last year at https://fulgaz.com/my-giro-ditalia-virtuale-pike- talbert?” his note began. “If so, I'm wondering if you were going to curate a version 2.0 for the 2021 Giro?” That was all the inspiration I needed! A week later: Tahdah! An initial draft was complete: 21 stages utilising 20 FulGaz rides, 14 of which were new this year—either recently released by FulGaz, or recently discovered by moi. Several iterations later the final version was complete. The Table below provides a comparative Summary. A couple of background comments are worth highlighting: • My Giro last year was mostly about climbing as many of the famous and iconic mountain passes as possible. I have discovered the hard way that this is actually boring (not to mention painful). It turns out that flatter, rolling stages usually contain better scenery—a “smell the roses” approach that favours vistas and seeing more of Italy’s natural beauty over elevation gain and degree of difficulty. Thus, I have inserted more flatter and rolling stages. • Most of the rides I have eliminated in favour of the new ones are longer climbs (i.e., greater than 90 minutes based on videographer time and 3 of the 4 Stelvio-related ascents). It is for this reason that the total time is nearly an hour less than last year.

  • South Tyrol: a Cyclists' Mecca
    Press Release IDM Südtirol – Alto Adige South Tyrol: A Cyclists’ Mecca In 2019, the “Tour of the Alps” will once again cast cycling in South Tyrol into the spotlight. South Tyroleans love cycling, and what’s more: They also set new benchmarks through their environmental awareness. For the third time already, the Tour of the Alps 2019 will lead professional cyclists across five stages and through three states of the European region Tyrol–South Tyrol–Trentino. This time around, the Tour of the Alps will take place from 22 to 26 April. Three stages—on 23 and 24 April and the final stage on 26 April—will take the professional cyclists through South Tyrol. But pros are not the only ones pedalling hard in our part of the world: Bozen/Bolzano is a genuine cycling capital, because nearly one in three people cycle on a daily basis. There are projects in place all over South Tyrol which aim to popularise bicycles as a means of transportation and integral part of everyday mobility. Here, cycling is the people’s sport, which is promoted with a range of offers and campaigns. “South Tyrol cycles”, for instance, is a project by Green Mobility South Tyrol (hiips://www.greenmobility.bz.it/en/ ). In 2018, almost 4,000 cyclists participated: The total distance covered by them on their way to work or to school amounted to a whopping 3.2 million km! Plenty of cycling is not only good for the body, but also for the environment. All that cycling prevented approx. 300 tonnes of carbon dioxide from being emitted into South Tyrol’s atmosphere (hiips://www.su edtirol-rad.com).

  • Dolomites Italy
    Overseas Dolomites August 31 meet Italy September 14 The Dolomites in northern Italy are undoubtedly one of the most beautiful mountain groups in the world and the seventy-odd via ferrata climbing routes mostly put up during the First World War conflict are an added attraction. The first two weeks of September were selected for the meet as the Italian holidays are over, but the lift systems and huts are still open. The leader had been to the Dolomites over half a dozen times before, and hired a large comfortable self-catering chalet in Arabba, a centrally located village which offered good access to seven different mountain groups. As a venue for a meet, the spires, peaks, ridges and valleys of the Dolomites offer plenty of scope for a wide range of activities: walks, mountain biking, via ferrata climbing routes, scrambling and both sport and traditional rock climbing. The lift infrastructure makes using a valley base compatible with reaching most routes and summits without resorting to nights in refuges. This made for a relaxed and sociable meet with shared catering and nightly opportunities to share experiences and plan outings. The two-week trip gave those members only able to manage a week some flexibility with dates while those with more time found no difficulty in finding interesting routes to fill every day. The weather was mostly good but with a couple of wet days when waterfalls and salamanders became the main attractions. At the start of the second week, precipitation plastered the mountains with snow down to below pass level creating new challenges for the next few days but enhancing the mountain views.
