Arabba Marmolada has the biggest vertical in this batch, at 1,823 metres, from a 1,446-metre base up to a 3,269-metre summit on the Marmolada glacier. Sanity lists 43 runs over 63 kilometres, graded 37% beginner, 48% intermediate and 15% advanced, with no expert terrain. Despite that grading, the character is steeper than the numbers suggest, because many runs fall away on north-facing faces beneath Porta Vescovo and the Marmolada. Aerial trams, gondolas and a strong set of quad and six-seat chairs carry skiers up, and the area sits on the Sellaronda circuit.

The runs worth planning around are the black pistes above Arabba, including Fodoma, Sourasass and Variante Ornella, along with the Bellunese run from Punta Rocca on the Marmolada down to Malga Ciapela, a long glacier descent of many kilometres. Porta Vescovo gives reliable cold slopes and good cruising for intermediates. Off-piste lines exist beneath the lifts, but they need local knowledge and avalanche gear. The area suits strong intermediates, advanced skiers and anyone wanting big vertical and high-altitude skiing, and it is less suited to complete beginners.

The Arabba winter season typically extends from early December through late April, with the high-altitude Marmolada glacier often operating into May. The area receives approximately 4 metres of annual snowfall, supplemented by extensive snowmaking on lower elevations. January and February deliver consistently cold temperatures, preserving snow quality on Arabba's predominantly north-facing slopes.

The high alpine terrain around Marmolada offers exceptional late-season skiing with stable spring snow conditions and extended daylight hours. The resort follows the Dolomiti Superski calendar, with operations beginning on northeastern slopes before expanding to fully connect with the Sella Ronda circuit by mid-December.
