Ski area Paganella
With the "Paganella" lift pass, you have around 40 kilometres of pistes (including ski routes) and 20 lifts at an altitude of 1,030 to 2,125 m at your disposal. With the 6-day Paganella lift pass, you can ski one day in the Folgaria-Lavarone ski area and one day in the Monte Bondone ski area (not valid from 21 December 2024 to 6 January 2025). From Fai della Paganella and the neighbouring village of Andalo, you can quickly reach the varied ski area. In the lower-lying sections, the routes mostly lead through idyllic spruce forests and offer the best fun on the slopes. The predominantly easy and medium-difficulty pistes are ideal for families. There are therefore two facilities for children, the Pinocchio Club, a "snow kindergarten" in the village of Rindole and the Paganella Fun Park, a two-hectare amusement park in the snow.
Also not to be missed is the 5 km long Olympic downhill run, which covers 1,075 metres in altitude. Even the Norwegian and US ski teams have set up their European training centre here and have their World and European Cup skiers train for the combined, super-G and giant slalom. The deep snow areas that open up at the summit of the Paganella are also fantastic. Boarders can let off steam in the "Dosson" snow park.
The "Combi (5+1)" lift pass is valid for 6 days on all pistes in the Paganella ski area and 1 day in one of the other ski areas of the Skirama, e.g. Folgarida-Marilleva, Madonna di Campiglio, Pinzolo, Passo del Tonale, Pejo, Monte Bondone or Folgaria.

Rules of conduct on ski pistes in Italy
To ensure safety on the ski slopes in Italy, stricter safety regulations have been in force since 2022. In order to use the ski areas, everyone must have liability insurance that covers damage to third parties. It will also be possible to take out this insurance on site for individual days. Drunken skiing is prohibited and punishable by heavy fines, with a maximum of 0.5 mg of alcohol per litre of blood. To reduce the risk of injury, helmets are also compulsory for all minors when skiing, snowboarding or tobogganing.
Night skiing Fai della Paganella
In Paganella it is easy to find illuminated pistes. The ski area Paganella in the Italian Dolomites offers a great 3 km piste which is illuminated by floodlight at night. The piste Cacciatori 1 is perfectly accessible with the gondola Anadalo-Doss Pelà, which makes night skiing even more fun. Food and drink is also available until late, as the Dosson mountain hut opens according to the lifts opening hours when they're open for night skiing. The lifts operate for night skiing every Tuesday and Friday from 19:30 - 22:30. Everybody looking for a special experience should try out night skiing.Après ski Fai della Paganella
Fai della Paganella also wins over guests with its après-ski: as in many Italian resorts, you can enjoy the dolce vita and relax with good food in the numerous restaurants and mountain lodges, or simply enjoy some time over a cup of coffee in a coffee house. Guests can also experience some great night life in Andalo, e.g. in "Discoteca Shuttle", where the partying and dancing continues until late at night.
If you'd rather stay sporty, take advantage of Andalo's sport centre, where you can go ice skating on the ice rink for instance. In the "Acqua In", a spa and beauty centre with an indoor pool, you can enjoy massages or make use of the sauna and steam baths. Fans of nature can explore the surroundings on altogether 30 km of winter hike trails. The trail leads through the plateau's five valleys as well as the wildlife park Adamello-Brenta. Or you can try the cross-country, an adventurous tour with suspension railway and suspension bridges.
