Dolomites On-Piste Skiing Safari

Luxury Austria & Italy Ski Safari with One Rifugio Night

Ski the Arlberg Austria and the Italian Dolomites. Enjoy luxury accommodations, fine wines, and gourmet dining experiences curated by world-renowned chefs with an added opportunity to stay one night in a traditional Refugio on this amazing ski safari experience.

Trip Overview

The ski resorts of St. Anton, St.Christoph, ​Stuben, Lech, Zürs, Warth, and Schröcken are located in the ‘Arlberg’ region of Tirol, Austria. World-famous and internationally honored, the Arlberg area is probably the most popular location for on-piste skiing, as well as for free-ride and off-piste. The entire Arlberg ski area is considered the cradle of alpine skiing and is the chosen destination for skiers from all over the world.

Skiing in the Dolomite Mountains is an otherworldly experience. The groomed pistes not only offer incredible terrain, but the climate, including 8 out of 10 days filled with sunshine, offers vistas so beautiful that you truly must see to believe. The imposing peaks of the Dolomites emerged millions of years ago from primordial marine expanses created by microorganisms that were embraced and molded by the glaciers during the ice age. Boasting the number one ski resort in the world, with over 5,000 vertical feet of skiable terrain, the Dolomites are a winter sports paradise for families, beginners, and champions alike!
The Dolomite Mountains are simply breathtaking in winter – a pristine mountain landscape blanketed with snow.

Want to learn more about our Mountain Inns & Rifugi?
Rifugi – or mountain huts in English – are the classic accommodation for hikers, climbers, mountaineers, and ski mountaineers in the Alps. Set in spectacular locations high in the Dolomites, rifugi are accessible only on foot (with a few exceptions that are reachable by car). These marvelous establishments are open primarily in the summer, with a select few in winter, and offer meals and sleeping facilities.

The Dolomite rifugi are considered the best in the Alps. While some are dormitory style with bunk beds, many meet the standard of a simple guest house with private rooms and en-suite bathrooms, and each has its own unique character and charm. Bedding and linens are provided, hot showers are available, and meals are served in common dining areas – like a small mountain inn set high in the mountains with the most incredible vistas in the Dolomites. Whether you’re hiking in summer or skiing in winter, an overnight rifugio stay is not to miss on a Dolomite holiday.

To learn more about rifugi in the Dolomites, check out our Rifugios in the Dolomites article, and learn about one of the best ways to experience these incredible mountains!
Still want more? Why not extend your adventure!
Dolomite Mountains offers fantastic extensions that you can enjoy before or after your trip in the Dolomites. Explore Venice, Verona, Lake Garda, Florence, or Milan, or any of the many other magical places found throughout Italy. There's no more perfect way to recover from jet lag upon arrival, or delay your return to reality at the end of your trip!
