As far as we know, we are the only British operator featuring this excellent
circuit. It's always potentially been a good area but the big new investment
has converted theory to practice.
Purpose-built Artesina's main features are big mileage, convenience and value.
It's also very friendly, kind to beginners and an easy 2hr transfer. The area
covers about 100km of easy and intermediate skiing. Artesina resembles the French
Sud Alpes resorts just over the border. Many slopes face North for added snow
security and the modern lift system has new, powerful snow cannons. Artesina
doesn't have to rely on them though because, like Prato Nevoso, it has excellent
natural conditions. The locals tell us it has a special micro climate where
the warmer winds from the South collide with the cold Alpine air and create
lots of snow.Sounds like resort PR but all we can say is that the proof is in
the pudding!
The link to Prato is dead easy for all abilities thanks to 2 new blue runs.
Progression is terrific for keen learners and plenty of long, wide runs above
the trees, which invite ambitious intermediates to work hard and get off that
plateau! We especially recommend the fantastic ski school. This circuit offers
enough for advanced skiers using the whole of the system but experts should
look elsewhere. It's all typical Italian skiing, user-friendly, sociable and
great fun. Right up our street!
Artesina village is small and purpose-built for the skier so it's really convenient
and virtually traffic free. Last year a huge underground car park was built
so you can now ski right up to the terrace of our hotel. There are a few shops,
cafes, restaurants and other facilities. The ski shop is right by our hotel
and everything is close to hand. There are big plans to develop the village
as well so watch this space!
