Canazei for beginners

Beginners rating -
7
Perfect
Newbies, fret not! Canazei offers a beginner-friendly zone right on the village's edge and a snowsure area at the top of the Ciampac gondola. So, your first forays into skiing will be a breeze here.

Canazei for intermediates

Intermediates rating -
Poor
Perfect
Intermediate skiers are in for a treat. You can't miss the Sella Ronda circuit, particularly the orange route towards Val Gardena, for a day of diverse skiing. If you want a break from the crowd, steer toward Pozza di Fassa for quieter slopes.

Canazei for advanced

Advanced skiers rating -
Fun
Perfect
The expert skiers are well-catered for here. Take your pick from challenging black pistes, off-piste on Marmolada mountain, or world championship courses in Val Gardena and La Villa. A guide is recommended for those venturing off-piste.

Canazei for snowboarders

Snowboarders rating -
Fun
Perfect
Boarders, Canazei's got you covered. With its own snow park accessible by the Belvedere chairlift and the Toe gondola, you'll find plenty of room to carve and shred.

Canazei for off-pistes

Off-pistes rating -
Fun
Perfect
For off-piste enthusiasts, Marmolada mountain is a highlight, but remember that these runs depend on natural snowfall, which can sometimes be scarce. It's advised to bring a guide for these high-altitude escapades.

Canazei for families

Families rating -
Fun
Perfect
Families with kids will find Canazei an all-season playground. While the resort's ski schools and snow activities like sledding and snowshoeing are a hit, it's not all about the slopes. Off the pistes, youngsters can splash around in the indoor pool, take cultural tours, or even try ice-climbing for some added adventure.

Canazei apres-ski

Apres-ski rating -
Perfect
Poor
If you’re a fan of lively après-ski vibes, you're in luck! From dancing on tables at Apres Ski Paradis to mingling at the Esso Bar, Canazei's got après-ski sorted. Don't skip drinks at Gran Bar Pecol or Baita Cuz as the sun sets.
