Enjoy more than 400 km of slopes. The resort itself offers 60 km of mostly demanding downhill courses with an unmistakable backdrop of the highest peak of the Dolomites, Marmoladou (3,342 m above sea level). We recommend a 12 km long red track leading from its top. Arabba also offers numerous open-air skiing opportunities and adrenaline enthusiasts can try heliski.
