Passo Tonale Overview
Passo Tonale is one of the highest resorts in Italy with the highest lift at an impressive 3069 metres. The Presena glacier, along with the resort’s excellent snow record, means the ski season here usually runs from November until late April, making the resort a great choice for schools especially at both ends of the season. The 100 kilometres of pistes are varied with some long runs and are suitable for all levels of skiing. The après ski is second to none and sure to give your students a wonderful experience in Italy.
