Pinzolo: one of the best ski resorts in Italy
Pinzolo is a charming ski resort located in the upper part of Val Rendena, in the province of Trento, and surrounded by the breathtaking views of the famous Alpine mountains of Brenta Group, Adamello Group, and Presanella Group.
The town is located 780 meters above sea level, but a modern ski lift takes people up to Doss del Sabion (2100 meters high) (pic n°1)(pic n°2)(pic n°3), where a 30-kilometer long ski area with 19 slopes is waiting for both beginners and advanced skiers. In fact, the slopes cover all the levels of difficulty, and even the most adventurous skiers can find exciting slopes, such as Tulot, Grual, DoloMitica Star, Brenta and Rododendro.
Apart from this, Pinzolo is also part of a wider ski area which also includes Madonna di Campiglio, Folgarida and Marilleva. This wide ski area offers more than 150 kilometers of clean ski slopes, served by modern ski lifts offering breathtaking views over the whole area. It is the widest ski area of Trentino, and it will undoubtedly meet all your needs.
Pinzolo offers a variety of sport and leisure activities (pic n°4). Beyond skiing and snowboarding, you can also try dogsledding excursions or go cross-country skiing (there are over 40 kilometers of trails in different locations), paragliding, ice-skating, or snow-racket walking among the beautiful valleys of the area. Nature lovers will love the surroundings as Pinzolo is linked to two stunning valleys, (Val Campiglio and Val Genova) that will enchant you with beautiful landscapes and waterfalls.
Also, you should not miss taking the new cable car called Pinzolo-Campiglio Express which links Pinzolo to the famous ski resort of Madonna di Campiglio in 16 minutes, and it offers the most beautiful and spectacular views of the whole Trentino region.
Finally, and especially for snowboarder or freestyle lovers, we suggest visiting the famous snow park called Brenta Park (pic n°5) which is located in the beautiful area of Brusa di Grual, a real paradise for freestylers. It is equipped with lots of facilities and tools to ensure a great fun! With the new links, Ursus Snow Park in Madonna di Campiglio is also easily reachable.
Pinzolo is also a very nice town, with a beautiful church and countless facilities to help you get a perfect ski holiday. From the Sixties, the town has been improved with many comfortable hotels featuring wellness spas, as well as cafes and restaurants where to taste the delicious local cuisine.
It is a good destination for families with children, as it offers exciting torchlight processions, playgrounds, many facilities, a mini club service and many restaurants directly on the ski slopes, plus lots of events and entertainments throughout the season.
