About Pozza - presentation, information, photos and recommendations
Pozza - southern flair and fantastic skiing!
Pozza di Fassa (1,320 m) lies at the foot of the Rosengarten (2,983 m) in the centre of Val di Fassa, and attracts guests with its typical Mediterranean flair. Thanks to its central location, the resort is a great starting point from which to explore the area's landscape. Pozza is a bit of a quieter resort, perfect for families. The little alleyways with their cafés and bars with sun terraces invite to relax in the sun and have a coffee, cappuccino or campari after an active day skiing.
Culture buffs will find the Ladin museum and the natural ice rink invites guests to skate in front of the surrounding mountains' impressive landscape. In the "Dolomia" thermal springs, visitors can relax mind and body after an eventful day. The sulfurous source in Pozza is the only one in Trentino.
SkiWith the "Val di Fassa - Carezza" lift pass, you have access to approx. 114 kilometres of piste that are connected with about 59 lifts between 1,200 - 2,625 m in the Alba, Canazei, Campitello, Karersee, Pozza and Vigo areas. Numerous freeride and deep snow areas as well as predominantly pistes of intermediate difficulty. Hardcore ski fans can enjoy the black pistes, such as the famous "Tomba" near Ciampedie or the illuminated pistes at Pozza for night skiing fans!
The local ski area of Campitello is to be found at the Buffaure (2,485 m). Here 16 km of mainly intermediate pistes await you. The sunny, wide pistes are great for pleasure skiers and snowboarders. Certainly worth recommending is the long valley slope to Pozza, that will enchant you with its wonderful panorama. Another highlight is the "Panoramica" forest slope. Pozza is, with its black Aloch piste, training grounds for the Italian national ski team and a venue for the European Cup.
The "Panorama" ski tour connects the Buffaure ski area with the one in Alba di Canazei at Ciampac. The famous Sella Ronda is also easily reachable. The 40 km long day trip around the Sella Massif on skis is an absolute must for every ski fan! Numerous huts, the so-called "Rifugi", are located along the pistes and invite you relax and sunbathe.
With the "Dolomiti Superski" ski pass (upgrade available for a fee) you get access not only to the Sella Ronda, but also approx. 1,200 km of piste and 450 lifts in 12 ski areas!
Relaxation and sociability are a top priority in Pozza! Numerous lodges and restaurants invite you in to spend a great social evening. If you'd rather fall into the night life, take a trip to neighbouring Canazei or Campitello. Various apres ski bars, such as the "Cliff" or "Paradise", as well as pubs and discos invite you in to party the night away. A tip for gourmets is the traditional Ladin cuisine, which is offered throughout Val di Fassa. Let yourself be spoilt by the light and spicy dishes, which you can enjoy to the fullest with a fine Trentino wine!
The sports options in Val di Fassa are just as numerous as the culinary choices, ranging from paragliding, kite flying, ice hockey, ice skating to bowling, tennis, squash, football and basketball. Romantics can take an evening torch hike or a horse sleigh ride. Various toboggan runs, e.g. at the Karerpass or in Alba di Canazei provide lots of fun. And if you prefer to relax after a long day on the piste, you can choose between "Dolomia" in Pozza or the "Aquarena Dòlandes" in Alba di Canazei with their 4 thermal pool landscapes.
Cross-country fans definitely get their money's worth in Val di Fassa. A total of about 50 km of trails, from easy to challenging, can be found in the 5 different cross-country areas. Amongst other events there is also the famous, annual "Marcialonga": a racing event which covers a total of approx. 70 km between Val di Fassa and Val di Fiemme.
In Pozza itself there are 10.5 km of trails available. The about 4.5 km long Ciancoal trail in Pozza di Fassa is lit up at night and offers unforgettable fun on the piste until the late hours. Even more challenging is the trail at high altitude near Ciampac and skiers with good stamina can test themselves on the approx. 10 km long and challenging track from Alochet to Campo D'Orso at an altitude of about 1,900 m.
