No, we hadn't heard of it either! Giovanni d'Ambrosio, our Italian Director,
prides himself on digging out little known gems of almost wilful obscurity,
and Siusi village, with its chalets, arches, cobbles, pastel paintwork, wall
murals and extraordinary mountain backdrop, is quite simply one of the most
gorgeous ski locations we have ever seen.
As a trade-off, we expected the skiing to be negligible, but no, it's great!
A State of the Art gondola rises from the edge of the village into a fantastic
ski area which is shared with much more famous Ortisei. You will find runs of
every kind, on high, snow-sure slopes, with Dolomite views of humbling splendour.
We are sure most people will be happy with the local skiing but access to the
limitless Sella Ronda can be accessed via Santa Christina village which you
can get over to in 1.5hrs. Included on your lift pass is Alpi di Siusi, Selva
Val Gardena and Santa Christina. This is a terrific area spread over 3 connecting
mountains. The runs are long and wide and offer even the best skiers plenty
of challenge. You can buy an extension for the whole of the Superski Dolomiti
if you wish but we don't recommend it as there's more than enough to cope with
here for a week or more.
Siusi, Austrian until 1918, is a medieval village celebrated in poetry and song,
and was once a home-from-home to the doomed European and Russian aristocracy.
It's popular now with old-money tourists and new-rich ski fashionistas who want
something different. There are plenty of civilised and pleasant places to eat,
drink and shop.
