The uniqueness of Madonna di Campiglio is by the fact that it sits on the border of the Dolomites and the Alps, at the feet of the Dolomite’s Brenta group, a Unesco heritage site.
Madonna di Campiglio sits in the middle of the Adamello- Brenta nature park which is known for its diversity of fauna and Flora and famous as the only place in western Europe where bears exist in nature, so be careful with your off-piste adventures.
The ski area spread from the altitude of 2500 meters above sea level to 850 meters above sea level.
It has 45 blue runs, 37 red runs and 18 black runs, there are 60 ski lifts and these are the most important cable cars for you to know are:
Cinque lagi cable car that will lift you to Cinque Lagi area,
where the steepest run of the whole area as well as the FIS world cup run located.
By the way this run is illuminated at night
I advise you from this area to take the Pinzolo- Campiglio express lift system that will take you,
with a great view on the Brenta cliffs to Pinzolo,
In Pinzolo you’ll find the best views on the Brenta and Presena and Adamello glaciers.
By the way, this lift system connected the southern part of Madonna di Campiglio to the ski area as well.
Spinale which will take you to Spinale pick, the origin of some great blacks run and to the beginning of one of the best toboggan courses in Italy.
Pardalago, which will take you to Pardalgo area which has lots of beginner’s slopes.
Pardalago area connects you to the ski resorts of Marileva and Folgarida and also connect between cinque lagi area and Campo Carlo Magno.
In Carlo Campo Magno, you can find many cross-country trails,
and the groste lift system that will lead you to the highest point in the ski area.
Groste area has the highest altitude and the best snow conditions in late season and one of the top 5 snow parks in Europe: Ursus Snowpark.
The park has a fast 8seater chairlift along its side. Very important for park rats.
By the way, Ursus in Latin means bear
So, before wrap up, here are our ratings for Madonna Di Campiglio:
For snowboarder’s, it’s 8
Just because of the great ursus snow park that has a fast 8 seater chairlift along its side
For advanced skiers: 7
The fact that the ski area is not huge and the snow is quite slashi in most of March damages a better score because the scenery is amazing.
For beginners and intermediates: 8
There are many easy slopes here and the size of the ski area is big enough for a week vacation.
For freestylers, it’s a 9, just because of the amazing snow park, and by the way, there are another 3 snow parks in the ski area
For free riders, it’s a 6.
There are very few off-piste areas, most of them are between trees and it recommends to do only with a local guide and for good riders. Some of the real backcountry skiing demands a bit of walking and is quite tricky.
Nightlife and apres-ski it’s a 6.
Except for some special weeks, the town is a bit sleepy and usually, the party lovers around will end up at Piano 54
