Conditions on the slopes

Apart of seeing beautiful mountains and peaks, we went to Folgarida to ski and snowboard, of course. It was an amazing experience for me, as the person who has never been on such big slopes. Our ski-pass let us ski and snowboard on 150 km of slopes and we could use over 90 ski lifts. The slopes were very well prepared and everybody could find there a place for them: not only beginners who need big and wide, flat fields, but also the most experienced skiers, who could chose Canalino, a very difficult slope, or the one number 18, which led though the forest over an abyss. I tried almost every mountainside, even the most distant from our base. Daily, we made from 30 to 80 km, and we haven’t even seen the rest of the complex: the other mountain on the other side of the valley.

The gold advise was to... keep a map always with you. And ever then it was quite simple to get lost – what I did, of course. Fortunately, I found my friends and then we bought the biggest pizza that I have ever seen . It was delicious. If we are already talking about food, we had an opportunity to participate – absolutely by chance – in a party made by Ballardini family who have been leading their shelter for 50 years. They were giving up Prosecco and they made a beautiful, huge, and very tasty cake, which was also for free. Everything was happening in the atmosphere created by a radio speaker of the radio Studio PiĆ¹. Unexpectedly, we spent most of our day in that shelter J
