CLASSIFICATION OF SKI SLOPES The tours we offer will allow you to #ski in the most beautiful, panoramic and famous ski slopes in the world. The ski slopes are marked with different colors according to the difficulty. The blue slopes are the easy slopes, the red ones are the intermediate ones while the difficult ones are the black. There is no exact correspondence between slope and degree of difficulty because other factors such as the width, the length of a more demanding stretch, the exposure etc. also fall into the classification of the ski slopes. With good approximation it can be said that the blue slopes have up to 25/30% slope, the red ones up to 45/55% and the black ones beyond this level.

WORLD CUP TOUR in ONE DAY The Skisafari Word Cup Tour takes you in one day on the three tracks of the South Tyrolean World Cup. The Erta di SanVigilio, the Gran Risa in Alta Badia and the Saslong in Val Gardena. The ski tour is demanding both from the technical point of view due to the difficulty of the three tracks, the destination of our route, and from the athletic point of view because it is a rather long ride. You can start indifferently from one of the three locations and then continue following the directions below 1. San Vigilio di Marebbe in Val Pusteria From the village you go up through the two sections of the Pedagà and Piz de Plaies gondola lift with the Erta slope, the first goal of our tour as well as the Pinculin slope going down to Alta Badia. 2. La Villa in Val Badia Here we have the giant World Cup slalom track named Gran Risa which goes down to the town of La Villa. 3. Selva di Valgardena in Val Gardena The alternatives here are two, one is the classic Dantercepies while the second is the Cir, another track that has been the scene of women's downhill skiing in the past even if it is no longer today. Although less known, it always gives great satisfaction. But the last stop, once you get off at Selva, the Ciampinoi cable car, takes us right to the start of the Saslong which will take us to Santa Cristina.
