Ski tour "Giro della Grande Guerra"

With skiers on the Col di Lana, venue of WWI

The "Giro della Grande Guerra", also called "First World War Ski Tour", is a tour on skis that takes you round Col di Lana, venue of the First World War. This area bears traces of several battles and there are numerous findings from these times, for example fire trenches, defensive corridors and forts.

However, if you would like to do this tour, you should be provided with the Dolomiti Superski Pass, which also enables you to use ski shuttles for free. There is an extra charge for taxi bus and horse-drawn-carriages. This tour takes about 6 hours and can even be made if you are not familiar with the area and territory.

Starting from Alta Badia by car or taxibus service, you proceed to Passo Falzarego, where you take the funicular in order to reach the Lagazuoi peak. Following the Lagazuoi ski slope you reach the lift facilites of Col Gallina. From this point you just have to follow the signpostings. :-) Enjoy the striking landscape!
