The 51st winter season of Dolomiti Superski is just around the corner. The vast ski area will officially open on Saturday, November 29, with the first lifts running in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Plan de Corones, 3 Cime Dolomites, Val di Fiemme-Obereggen, Alpe Lusia-San Pellegrino, San Martino di Castrozza and Civetta.
During the summer and autumn months, the 130 cableway companies of the consortium worked intensively to renew and enhance the infrastructure. In total, 13 lifts have been replaced or modernized across 9 of the 12 Dolomiti Superski areas, while many others underwent major maintenance and snowmaking system upgrades.
Among the most anticipated innovations is the new 3S Col Rodella gondola lift in Val di Fassa, built by SIT Canazei — the first tri-cable gondola in the Dolomites. This state-of-the-art installation will offer greater transport capacity and superior wind stability. Departing from Campitello di Fassa, it replaces the historic “vai e vieni” cable car, improving access to the ski area during peak times. Testing is scheduled for December, with opening planned by Christmas 2025.
