Passo Tonale

Italy

PassoTonale1

The upside

  • Good-value mid-market lodgings
  • Sunny but snow-sure slopes
  • Plenty of uncrowded, easy runs, immediately above the village
  • Link to Ponte di Legno adds attractive, steeper, treelined runs

The downside

  • Not much locally for experts or keen intermediates
  • Local slopes are above the treeline and unpleasant in bad weather
  • Linear village strung along the pass road is no beauty
