Description

The Dolomites have something of a reputation in the ski world - they're considered steep, serious, and the preserve only of elite skiers. That's true, to an extent, but as our guidebook to easier Dolomites tours - https://fatmap.com/guidebooks/24466/easy-ski-tours-through-the-epic-dolomites-mountains - shows, there are some incredible low-grade ski adventures to be had in the region too.

This guidebook is for those skiers looking to make the leap between those easy tours, and the highly technical routes in here - https://fatmap.com/guidebooks/24464/unique-terrain-and-huge-lines-:-tough-dolomites-ski-tours.

We've included 6 ski tours in here which will present a challenge but should still be doable for those who completed the routes in the aforementioned easier tours guidebook. The 6 trips listed here will take you all over the Dolomites so doing these will not only provide you with some epic skiing, they'll also give you an excuse to explore one of the most scenic mountain ranges in Europe!
