Off-piste skiing Bus de Tofana to Tofane

This amazing off-piste skiing itinerary is considered one of the most beautiful slopes of the Dolomites, as to both the type of the trail and the fascinating landscape that surrounds it.

The most peculiar passage of the itinerary is the wide natural hole in the cliff that leads to the other side of Tofana di Mezzo. From there, you will start skiing down the wide rill that stretches out among the dolostone rocks.
