The whole area was thus given the new name AdamelloSki and with a total number of 100 kilometers of pistes for the price of one ski pass, it offers an incredible skiing experience to passionate athletes and families with children.

From mid-January to the end of March, fun afternoons and evenings for children are organized here every week.
