Looking for something to do that is perfect for the whole family? How about an exciting on-piste ski adventure? No – an on-piste ski safari isn’t an oxymoron! In the Dolomites, it’s possible for on-piste skiers to ski from hut-to-hut – entirely on groomed, lift-served runs!  It’s the perfect trip for everyone in the family to enjoy an exhilarating adventure together.

On our On-Piste Hut-to-Hut Family Ski Adventure, you’ll enjoy a ski safari on the Dolomiti Superski network of 12 resorts, with over 5,000 vertical feet of skiable terrain! You’ll ski from valley to valley each day, traveling on groomed on-piste slopes throughout, and enjoy the welcoming atmosphere of a different rifugio or hotel each night.

This tour also provides you with the opportunity to explore the Ladin valleys of the Dolomites and their people, discover the traditions and history of these places that integrates the Ladin, Italian, and Austrian cultures, and explore the excellent cuisine!  Children and adults alike will be fascinated by the new and unique cultural discoveries!

Not only will you enjoy incredible Italian resort skiing, but you’ll discover the breathtaking beauty of the Dolomites, and see so much more than if you stayed at a resort at the base of the mountain. We can’t think of a better way to enjoy on-piste resort skiing or a more incredible way to create lasting family memories!

Note: This itinerary is designed for on-piste skiing. If you are interested in an off-piste lift-service ski safari, we invite you to check out our other ski safaris which range from on- and off-piste to lift-service backcountry skiing. We’d also be more than happy to customize this itinerary for you.

Day 2 ~ Sellaronda Ski Tour
The Sellaronda Ski Tour is one of the most spectacular ski tours in the world, circumnavigating the Sella Massif. Considered somewhat of a “merry-go-round” for intermediate level skiers, this unique circular connection of lifts and runs was once the only way the ancient inhabitants of the Ladin villages could maintain a connection with each other. Nowadays it’s a modern day carousel that connects four Dolomite passes and four Ladin valleys (Val Gardena, Alta Badia, Val di Fassa, and Arabba).
