Summary
Canazei is a sizeable town in Trentino’s Val di Fassa – a fabulously scenic region that is rather neglected by the British. The cobbled streets, modern hotels and traditional-style buildings are attractively set beneath the most heavily wooded section of the Sella Ronda circuit. The main gondola takes you up to the circuit, with its vast network of lifts and runs leading around a mighty and spectacular limestone massif. Individual runs maybe short and predominantly easy but the distances you can cover on skis are huge, making the area great for mile-hungry intermediates. And the extensive snowmaking is some of Europe’s best.
