Ski circuit “Giro delle Cime”
Fancy skiing on a grand scale? Then the “Giro delle Cime” is just right! This ski circuit starts at Helm and leads across five ski mountains, covering 35 kilometres of slopes and 11 lifts, all the way into the neighbouring province of Belluno and back again. Most of the route is completed on skis – only one section, the ski area Val Comelico in Belluno, is reached via the SALTO ski shuttle. The circuit offers a full day of skiing, well-connected runs and impressive views of the Dolomites. Along the way, cosy huts provide culinary highlights with homemade specialities. Important note: the “Giro delle Cime” is not suitable for snowboarders due to several narrow and flat sections.
