Get to know the resort

Ponte di Legno is a historic Lombard town in the Valle Camonica, lift-linked over the mountain to Passo Tonale for the 100 km Adamello Ski domain, with the Presena glacier at 3016 m guaranteeing snow into May.

It is one of the best-value high-season weeks in the Italian Alps, with the snow up top to match.

  • With 100 km of piste on 27 lifts, it is a mid-size area, easy to get to know in a long weekend.
  • The lifts typically turn for about 22 weeks a season, planning around late January to late February tends to land the most reliable cover.
