Our Review

Why is there an aeroplane at the bottom of the piste?

Tarvisio is an Italian skiing resort nestled in the borders between Italy, Austria and Slovenia making it great fun for a day visit.  It is a small resort under going big investment.  It has a new high speed gondola which whisks you to the top of the mountain an the beautiful village of Monte Santo di Lussari.

Tarvisio has enough slopes to fill a reasonably paced day and the nursery slopes are particularly good in terms of width and number of drags.  Having said this however some of the chairs were quite difficult for snowboarders to dismount with steep drop offs resulting in some spectacular tumbles.  Some areas of the mountain were also difficult to access if you weren't up to black piste standard.

The variety of restaurants is good and there are some fantastic views across the Triglav National Park.  My lasting memory of Tarvisio will be a group of Irish girls singing their way around the resort with their instructor.
