Sella Ronda-A popular tour on skis takes you round the Sella alpenstock
The Sella Ronda is a merry-go-round for skiers, the only one of its kind, a series of ski-lifts and downhill runs, all linked to one another and set against a background of woods, rocky peaks and expanses of snow that is no exaggeration to call extraordinary.
Joining the skiing circuit is easy: just follow the roads that take you to one of the four villages around the Sella mountain: Corvara (can be reach in 45 minute from our Hotel Terentnerhof), Canazei, Arabba, Selva. The length of the circuit, including both, ski-lifts and ski runs, is a little less than 40 km and it is an easy route to ski along. But, becouse it is high up in the mountains, you need to check the weather forecast in order to avoid running into snowfalls or high winds which can turn what is supposed to be an enjoyable day out into an unpleasant and risky enterprise, with the danger of getting stranded.
Any skier interested in doing the Sella Ronda must be fit, even if the runs themselves are of middling difficulty rather than advances. You can ski the Sellaronda in clockwise direction (orange) as well as counter clockwise (green).
You are advised to start the circuit no later than 10.00 in the morning, althought it is a good idea to start even earlier, especially if it is the first time you have tried it. You must reach the last pass by 15.30 otherwise you will miss the last ski-lifts; they close between 16.00 and 16.30.
