Santa Caterina is a charming quiet resort, and is ideal for families and beginners who want to stay away from the more crowded resorts. It retains much of its traditional charm and has some of the most outstanding scenery.
The runs are best suited for intermediates, while beginners have a few good runs to choose from and experts will have to do a bit of travelling to find some good off-pistes. the APres Ski is very quiet with limited non-ski activities to choose from. There is also an excellent ski school for beginners. |
