Alta Badia, Mountain ski resort in South Tyrol, Italy.
Alta Badia is a ski resort in South Tyrol spanning 130 kilometers of slopes between 1,300 and 2,800 meters elevation. The terrain is served by 53 modern lift systems located within the Dolomite Mountains.
The area grew as a winter sports destination and was integrated into the Dolomiti Superski network. This connection established it as one of the larger winter sports regions in the southern Alps.
The local Ladin-speaking people maintain their mountain way of life through traditional food served in huts across the slopes. Visitors experience this heritage directly while taking breaks during their day on the mountain.
The resort operates from December through April and offers equipment rentals, ski schools, and various accommodation options. The varying elevations mean conditions can differ across different sections of the slopes.
The Gran Risa slope hosts World Cup competitions and attracts professional athletes, while the Sellaronda circuit lets skiers ski around the Sella mountain range. This combination of race-level terrain and a connecting loop appeals to different skill levels.
