Slopes, resorts and accommodation

A ski resort in the Apennines, east of Rome. Before booking, take a close look at the different parts of the resort: staying near the lift saves time, while quieter locations often require a transfer or a car. If you are travelling with children or planning a longer stay, also consider the ski school, equipment hire and options for taking breaks away from the slopes.

Depending on when you travel and your ability level, Roccaraso–Rivisondoli, Ovindoli–Monte Magnola, Campo Imperatore, Terminillo, Abetone–Val di Luce or Monte Cimone may also be a better fit. Comparing resorts across Abruzzo and the Apennines highlights differences in size, terrain and atmosphere.

Getting there and planning your day

For a winter trip, the final access road, parking and the possible need for snow chains are just as important as your choice of lift pass. Check the latest weather updates and lift operations before setting off, as wind, fresh snowfall or individual closed connections can change your plans for the day.

If you are staying for several days, you can choose accommodation that also gives you access to other destinations in Abruzzo and the Apennines. The Italy overview can help you weigh up the region, travel arrangements and the type of trip you have in mind.

Ski area and choosing your slopes

Campo Felice’s official website lists 24 pistes and 13 lifts in its current directory. For beginners, the short Campo Scuola and Campo Scuola Cerchiare runs are specific examples; longer descents such as Scorpione, at 1,700 metres, and Falco, at 2,400 metres, give you an idea of the terrain. Check the official daily status before setting off to see which pistes and lifts are actually open.

When planning where to stay, compare the convenience of being close to the slopes, ski school and equipment hire with locations that also offer access to other ski areas in Abruzzo. If travelling by car, factor parking, winter equipment and the final stretch of the journey into your daily plans.
