If adventure means earning your destination through effort, skill and good judgement, Nordic ski touring could be the sport for you.
It takes you into the heart of the mountains, introduces you to the people who live there and creates unforgettable moments beside a crackling wood fire.
Born from cross-country skiing, Nordic ski touring shares the freedom and sense of adventure of ski mountaineering. Also known as backcountry cross-country skiing, it uses equipment similar to Nordic skis while some routes have more in common with ski touring.
Its character is generally gentler than ski mountaineering. The touring routes around Madonna di Campiglio lead through beautiful forests and quiet inner valleys that are often less familiar than the resort’s best-known destinations.
A guide is still a wise choice, not only for safety but also for discovering remarkable places that only someone with deep local knowledge can reveal.
