A brief overview
Situated on a high sunny pass, Passo Tonale, one of Italy's
highest purpose-built resorts enjoys skiing on both sides of the valley. Thanks
to some clever pisting and the opening of a new gondola, replacing the old
Paradiso cable car, it is possible to ski both areas with ease. Furthermore,
Tonale is experiencing a period of growth, with a new gondola linking the
neighbouring town of Ponte de Legno, which helps to compliment Tonale's high
altitude slopes. A great choice for people who want to stay close to the slopes
with a modern speedy lift system. A combination of sunny south facing slopes
that are excellent for beginners and snowsure north faces on the glacier mean
good snow conditions are always an easy find. Although non skiing activities
are limited in Tonale, Ponte di Legno has a range of shops and a sports centre
with swimming pool, reachable by a regular ski bus.
