The Val Senales valley in the Trentino Alto Adige region is Italy’s ski season at its best.
Open from 29 November
With the arrival of December, the Val Senales valley turns into a true Alpine fairytale setting, with glistening white slopes and scents heralding the festive seasont. From 29 November, the Alpin Arena Senales reopens its entire area to snow enthusiasts, offering a start to the season marked by pure beauty and mountain authenticity.
Suitable for skiers of all levels
Situated between 2,011 and 3,212 metres asl, the Alpin Arena Senales offers a skiing experience that goes beyond sport, becoming a sensory journey through breathtaking landscapes. Here the wide, airy ski runs allow skiers of all levels to experience a feeling of total freedom: gentle curves, descents that invite you to let go, and views that suddenly open up to snow-capped peaks.
Also cross-country skiing, winter hiking and snowshoeing
The area has 42 kilometres of slopes served by 11 lifts. Two symbolic stretches are the eight kilometres of the Talabfahrt, leading all the way down to the valley in a succession of evocative landscapes, and the black Leo Gurschler, intended for more expert skiers and perfect for those seeking a technical challenge. With more than 1,200 metres of altitude difference between Maso Corto and the glacier, the destination also lends itself to alternative activities such as cross-country skiing, winter hiking and snowshoeing on fresh snow, ideal for those who wish to explore the mountain at a slower pace.
Christmas excitement for young and old
The valley is not only sport and nature: December is also the month for traditions, lights and the festive Christmas atmosphere. The small towns and areas around the ski lifts come alive with events, with many moments dedicated to families. And here, in the tranquillity of the Schnalstal Valley, you find yourself far from the most crowded destinations. The Maso Corto area, the heart of the ski resort, is also an ideal starting point for those seeking comfort and proximity to the lifts. There are facilities designed to accommodate sportsmen, families and beginners, with dedicated services such as ski schools, children's areas, equipment rental spaces and introductory routes on easy and safe slopes.
