Austrian alpine skiing star Marcel Hirscher is no stranger to being at the forefront of a global ski race, but how did the retired legend handle being a forerunner at the legendary Hahnenkamm downhill down the fearsome Streif course in Kitzbühel?
Alta Badia, in the heart of the South Tyrolean Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is an authentic place, rich in culture and thousands of years of traditions, which distinguish the Ladin people who live in this area. The Nos Ladins (We Ladins) project aims to invite tourists to discover the local traditions and way of life. No-one can do this better than those who actually live there.
Last Monday (20 December 2021), the province of Trento was classified as a yellow zone, therefore the SkiArea Campiglio Dolomiti di Brenta has responsibly decided to modify lift and slope access procedures, also due to the upcoming Christmas holidays, by implementing a series of measures that will increase the safety of its guests.
With the new year, Italy is introducing further safety rules for ski resort visitors, such as mandatory helmets for all minors, liability insurance for winter sports enthusiasts and the 0.5 alcohol limit for skiing. In addition, as a precautionary measure, Italy will tighten the Covid-19 rules with the 2G rule (vaccinated or recovered) in accommodation establishments and on lifts from 10 January. All of this in order to be able to guarantee the safety of the population even better, while maintaining economic life in the country as far as possible.
The large northern Italian ski destination is joining Ikon Pass, the international ski pass association headquartered in the USA, thus emphasising its ambitions to attract new ski guests from abroad. From the 2021/22 winter season onwards, Dolomiti Superski will represent Italy within the association, seeking to attract ski enthusiasts from all around the globe to the Dolomites with its 1,200 kilometres of slopes and 450 lifts across 12 ski areas, a strong sign of a fresh start following the global health crisis.
Powder snow on the Stubai Glacier? Culture and entertainment in the provincial capital of Innsbruck? Or relaxing in a sauna and bathing paradise? This and much more is included with the SKI plus CITY Pass Stubai Innsbruck.

As the areas open up, some completely new cable lifts will enter into operation in Val di Fassa and at Madonna di Campiglio. For example, there’s the new Kristiania six-seat chairlift in Val di Fassa, or the modern, ten-seat cable car with automatic coupling in the ski area of Carezza, which has been given the name König Laurin. A distance of over 1,800 m, with an intermediate station, will be covered in just 6 minutes. Still in Val di Fassa, improvements have been made to the tracks of the "Vajolet 1" and "Vajolet 2" slopes in the Pozza di Fassa-Ciampedìe ski area, while the final stretch of the "Fiamme Oro 1" slope in the Alpe Lusia-San Pellegrino ski area has also been improved.
Safety, innovation and quality services: these are the keywords inspiring Trentino’s preparations for the upcoming winter holiday season. As just one example of the ways in which you can enjoy the mountain safely, our swift and comfortable cable lifts reduce travel time while offering plenty of space and new technological tools to minimise or even eliminate queueing. Then, add in a whopping 800 km of slopes, most of them divided up between two major resorts: Dolomiti Superski (350 kilometres) and Skirama Dolomiti-Adamello Brenta (approx. 400 kilometres). These numbers should offer plenty of reassurance, given that skiing is an individual, outdoor activity which naturally involves distancing, a key factor in reducing risks.
After the difficult past year, the Tyrolean winter sports areas are looking forward to welcoming their guests: despite all the challenges, investments were made in infrastructure across the country.

In addition to even more flexibility with mobile ticketing, which enables contactless payment without waiting at the ticket offices, the new "my Ski amadé Friends Club" offers special deals for all winter sports enthusiasts. Ski amadé would like to thank its guests for their trust and will thus ensure that there are plenty of unforgettable skiing moments. In addition, for the first time the ski association has collected all the information and options for resource-saving ski holiday planning and has prepared them for the guests.
