    Civetta commands Veneto's largest ski destination with 72km of interconnected slopes spreading across three valleys beneath the legendary 3,218m Mount Civetta and neighbouring 3,168m Mount Pelmo. This expansive Dolomites resort unites the historic mountain communities of Alleghe, Selva di Cadore, and Val di Zoldo through 26 modern lifts accessing terrain between 1,000m and 2,100m. The resort's signature Gran Zuita descent drops 1,100m across 7km from Col Fioret to Lake Alleghe, offering spectacular views of the northwest face of Mount Civetta—known as the "Wall of Walls" for its imposing 1,200m vertical rock face.

    As part of the Dolomiti Superski network, Civetta provides access to 1,200km of skiing across 12 interconnected resorts while maintaining its distinctive character as a family-oriented destination. The comprehensive snowmaking system covering 98% of terrain ensures exceptional reliability despite the moderate elevation, supplementing the area's substantial 600cm average annual snowfall. The predominantly intermediate terrain with 50% red runs and 39% blue runs creates ideal conditions for developing skiers, while challenging black runs and a dedicated snowpark at Val di Zoldo serve advanced riders. The resort's position just two hours from Venice establishes Civetta as the gateway to winter Dolomites skiing within the UNESCO World Heritage landscape.

    The Terrain

    52 runs across 72 km of piste

    Civetta is a Veneto Dolomites ski area that links Alleghe, Selva di Cadore and Val di Zoldo, with 72 kilometres of piste and 52 runs between 1,000 and 2,100 metres. That adds up to 1,100 metres of vertical, a solid drop for a family-scale area. Grading is gentle: 39% of the runs are beginner, 50% intermediate and 11% advanced, with nothing rated expert. Most of the network is wide red and blue cruising, served by gondolas and a long list of chairs and T-bars. It suits skiers who want easy mileage across three valleys rather than steep pitches.

    The longest descent is the Gran Zuita from Col Fioret, about 7 kilometres down towards Alleghe, with views of the northwest face of Monte Civetta. Around Col dei Baldi the slopes are good for building confidence, with a steady blue towards Palafavera and a steeper option for those wanting more bite. Advanced skiers will find limited black terrain, so this is not a steeps destination. Freeriders look to the flanks of Civetta above Rifugio Coldai, an itinerary that calls for a guide and avalanche gear. Families, progressing intermediates and Dolomiti Superski pass holders will get the most from it.

    When to visit Civetta

    Civetta typically operates from early December through early April, with optimal conditions concentrated in January through March when the resort benefits from its position in the heart of the Veneto Dolomites. The exceptional snowmaking system covering 98% of terrain provides remarkable reliability throughout the season, backed by nearly 200 snow cannons that supplement the area's impressive 600cm average annual snowfall. Despite the moderate elevation range of 1,000m to 2,100m, Civetta ranks among the snowiest Dolomites destinations, with consistent natural accumulation creating excellent powder opportunities after storms.

    The resort's predominantly intermediate terrain with wide, perfectly groomed pistes appeals particularly during stable winter periods, while the comprehensive artificial snow coverage ensures valley runs to all three base areas remain skiable even during marginal conditions. Clear weather reveals extraordinary panoramic views extending across the Dolomites to the Sella Group, Marmolada, Tofane, and Croda da Lago peaks. The resort's protected valleys create distinctive microclimates, with Col dei Baldi's sunny south-facing slopes maintaining excellent conditions even during cold snaps, while forested lower runs preserve snow quality throughout spring. Night skiing operations at Val di Zoldo extend the season's appeal, with illuminated slopes operating through the evening hours on select runs.

    Getting to Civetta, and where to stay

    Located in Belluno province in the heart of the Veneto Dolomites, Civetta sits approximately 120km from Venice and 132km from Treviso, making it the most accessible major Dolomites destination from the Venetian plain. The historic lakeside village of Alleghe anchors the resort alongside the mountain communities of Selva di Cadore and Val di Zoldo, providing comprehensive accommodation options and authentic Dolomites hospitality. Venice Marco Polo Airport provides the primary international gateway just two hours away, while Treviso Airport offers budget carrier access with similar transfer times, establishing Civetta as the gateway resort to winter Dolomites skiing.

    The resort's position within the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites landscape surrounds visitors with spectacular geological formations, including the imposing northwest face of Mount Civetta—the legendary "Wall of Walls" that attracts climbers worldwide. The three valley bases offer distinctive character: Alleghe sits dramatically beside its namesake lake beneath towering Dolomite walls, Selva di Cadore occupies the sunny Val Fiorentina between Mount Pelmo and Mount Civetta, while Val di Zoldo maintains traditional mountain village atmosphere with strong gelato-making heritage. Strategic ski bus connections link Civetta to nearby Marmolada glacier and Cortina d'Ampezzo within the Dolomiti Superski network, while the First World War Ski Tour passes through the resort, combining historical significance with spectacular skiing across multiple valleys.

    Utah Snow Storm Builds Early-Season Base Ahead of November Openings

    Utah Snow Storm Builds Early-Season Base Ahead of November Openings

    Rain down low, snow up high, and a snow report full of zeros that mostly means ‘not updated yet’. Utah’s first proper storm of 2026-27 is rolling through the Wasatch, Snowbird’s snow stake is closing in on 10 inches, and Brian Head is five days from opening day. Early November snow rarely looks like much, but it is the layer every November opening date is built on. Here is where it stands.

    Sierra Nevada Halloween Storm: Dodge Ridge Forecast to Lead With 19 Inches

    Halloween weekend brings a wet, windy storm to the Sierra Nevada. Our five-day forecast has Dodge Ridge on top with 19 in, followed by Bear Valley at 15 in and Mammoth Mountain at 12 in, with most of it landing on Saturday. A winter weather advisory covers the Tahoe Basin and Mono County until 7 AM Sunday, gusts could reach 47 mph and the freezing level swings between 4,900 and 8,700 ft, so some bases will see rain. A dry spell follows from Monday.

    Lake Louise Opens Early on 1 November With Juniper Express and Easy Street

    The Rockies get their first lift-served turns of the season early. Lake Louise opens Sunday 1 November, five days ahead of schedule, after a cold October and round-the-clock work from the snowmaking and mountain crews.

Opening-day tickets are over 60% off, with prices rising as more lifts open. First chair is at 9:30 am under the resort’s new lift hours.

    Kitzbüheler Horn Summit Cable Car to Be Replaced After 70 Years

    Kitzbüheler Horn Summit Cable Car to Be Replaced After 70 Years

    A Tyrolean summit lift that has been carrying guests up the Kitzbüheler Horn since 1955 is on borrowed time. Its licence runs to 2045, but a new inspection rule has made refurbishment uneconomic, so Bergbahn AG Kitzbühel will spend around €15 million on a replacement on the same line. It should hold roughly 100 people and keep running in winds that would stop today’s lift. Building starts in autumn 2027, which makes this winter and next summer the last chances to ride the old one.

    Wolf Creek Opens on Halloween Weekend as Colorado’s Early Season Gathers Pace

    Colorado’s early-season dominoes keep falling. Arapahoe Basin opened on Wednesday, Keystone follows on Friday, and now Wolf Creek is joining in on Saturday 31 October, just in time for Halloween. A storm on 23 and 24 October left 20 inches of natural snow in the San Juans, and three lifts will turn from 9:00 am, covering about 30% of the mountain.

    Beaver Creek Installs 16 Automated Snow Guns on Birds of Prey Ahead of Record World Cup

    Beaver Creek is getting ready for the biggest Birds of Prey ever, and this time it is not leaving the snow to chance. Crews started making snow on 27 October with 16 newly installed automated guns on the lower third of the course, after last December’s warm spell forced a downhill off the schedule. Seven races across two weekends run from 3 to 13 December, the most the course has hosted since its 1997 debut, and the guns start themselves whenever the weather allows.
