Dolomites, Venice & Florence in Dec. / Jan. - Rick Steves Travel …
2023年7月5日 · The Dolomites villages are all basically ski resorts, and hotels will be pricy over the Christmas and New Years’ holidays. And some will have minimum stay requirements of 3 to 7 nights. For example, Hotel Seelaus on Alpe di Siusi ( which is or at least was Rick’s recommended hotel) has a one-week minimum stay around that time, costing € ...
Family ski trip over Christmas in Dolomites or Alps
2018年9月12日 · I suspect the ski resorts will not be in bargain mode over the Holidays, when everyone who skis will be trying to do so. Unless you have FF miles for the air fare, I have doubts you can do it within the budget you gave. If you want to ski in a foreign country, Whistler may be a better choice to fit your budget.( and its only one time zone ...
Planning a ski trip to the Dolomites - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2022年5月18日 · Skied the dolomites several times. Cortina, Canazei, Selva (twice), Madonna di Campiglio (twice). Selva is hands down my favorite. It is on the Sella Ronda ski circuit.

Dolomites by train - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2019年10月27日 · There are lots of lifts to get to higher elevations, but I'm not sure what will be running during the time period of your trip. I think it's common for alpine lifts to close for maintenance between ski season and hiking season. This website has links to schedules for buses into the Val Gardena, though only the current schedules seem to be posted.
Where to stay in Dolomites - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2022年12月21日 · We had a 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment with a full kitchen. It was well appointed and so clean and very reasonably priced, with daily housekeeping. The hotel has a full wellness area with sauna and steam baths. It was super close to one of the chair lifts to take up to hike/ski. I highly recommend it and we want to stay there again soon!
Sledge and ski in Pyrenees vs Dolomites - Rick Steves
2022年12月18日 · We are hoping to spend a week skiing and sledging and a week visiting the area. We like to do activities (ice skate, recreation centers, hiking, excursions, etc.) versus visiting museums and walking around/ambiance. We are considering price as well and have heard the Dolomites can be pricey, but we are good with an air b&b and cooking at home.
Swiss Alps from Venice? - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2012年9月4日 · The Dolomites are a separate and distinct mountain range. The Italian alps, like the Ortler group that Tom mentioned, lie on the borders with Austria, Switzerland, or France. The Dolomites are stunningly beautiful and there are some small charming villages there, apart from the major ski resorts like Cortina.
The Dolomites in March? - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2010年10月7日 · We went to Castelrotto in mid-March a few years ago. We are not skiers, either. The village is very quaint and the scenery is fantastic. Nice restaurants, but not many. The drive to Alpe de Siusse was most enjoyable ... we watched skiers (it is at the end of the ski season) and hanggliders there and ate a great lunch.
Dolomites in late March - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2022年10月4日 · Late March is still skiing season in Ortisei, and that's a good thing! I'd even try to aim as close to mid-March as possible - but anytime up to the end of the month is good; things start to wind down in April.
