Arabba in Italy


Resort Guide

Arabba is a small, attractive relatively underdeveloped village which is almost lost in the surrounding mountainscape. Access lifts into the Sella Ronda are handy and it very much more the destination for hard core skiers and boarders with some more challenging terrain available. Slopes are high, snowsure and north facing, and the resort is one of the more convenient stopping off points for the Marmolada glacier.

Accomodation & Après Ski

Accommodation is a mix of apparments, chalets and hotels. The 4 star Sport hotel comes highly recommended as does the newer 5 star Grifone, but one of the best options is the 3 star Porta Vescovo which has a pool. There are one or two decent one and two star hotels. Bars and restaurants are in short supply.
