L '' Armentarola & egrave; the 'icon skitour Great War and connects the ski Ampezzane with the' Alta Badia. Is' the path pi & ugrave; famous ski tour of the Great War counterclockwise, & egrave; a classic track that brings together culture and nature of the Dolomites Ladin. Once reserved only for alpine skiers, today & egrave; beat to the rules of 'art.

You can reach the Falzaregopass, 2,105 mt, with a single span cable car that leads in share near the Rifugio Lagazuoi to 2,752 mt. Before you begin the descent & egrave; of 'must stop to admire the view: Dolomite peaks at 360 deg & ;, Tofane from the Marmolada to the Sella group. Entertainment! Ready? Via! At the start, the track has a positive slope. At the first junction turn left towards San Cassiano. The first section, usually being open & egrave; windy. The surrounding landscape & egrave; incredible: from the mountains to the Fanes Contur & igrave; nes seems to ski in an enchanted valley. Peace, quiet and few people are the 3 ingredients in seasoning variety & agrave; of the track. After the "valley" the slope becomes more & ugrave; soft and & egrave; a sequence of continuous undulations, twists and turns. Very nice! It deals with bad skiing slamming the speed & agrave ;, some stretches you can do in crouched position. Adrenaline! Once in a curve to the right, the front track is wider and the slope increases a little. Let's all run with ample curves in a good speed & agrave ;, seems to make a giant! After several changes of direction opens up on our right the scenery of the frozen waterfalls in close proximity & agrave; Scotoni of Refuge, where parking & egrave; of 'obligation. In my opinion & egrave; the refuge pi & ugrave; "Refined" of the & rsquo; entire area of ​​the Dolomites! We are at the final steep canyon to be taken at all, to avoid the risk of racchettare at the end of the race, the 'Arrival & egrave; in the false floor in resort & agrave; Sass Dlacia. To get to the ski lift at S. Cassiano still lacks the stretch of the tow horses, very picturesque and romantic ... concediamocelo. 2 km and we are at the end! The biggest flaw & egrave; which usually have the time to do it once! Too bad they can not go back with the plants to the point of partenza.Lunghezza: 7.5 kmDislivello 1130 mtPendenza: maximum 30% Color: rossaValutazione: 5 out of 5 intermedi.Commento For skiers: the 'Armentarola & egrave; a track unique and wonderful and seemingly endless. A path suited to intermediate skiers and evolving, for pi & ugrave; Experts large elevation changes and the possibility & agrave; to let go at speeds & agrave; supported!
