DAYS 3 to 5: Guided off-piste descents

Some examples:

Val Mezdí:
Ski to the Pordoi Pass, where you will take the cable car to reach the Piz Boè peak. Climb up for 15 minutes on your shoulders along the summer path and then begin 6 km of fresh snow descent to Colfosco. Descent in a magnificent environment, typically dolomitic, between rocky towers hundreds of meters high.

Powder skiing on the Marmolada Glacier:
