Winter in Valsugana is a wonderful opportunity to discover the mountains of Trentino from a different perspective, with snow-covered landscapes, outdoor activities and moments spent surrounded by nature.
From skiing and snowshoeing to sledding and walks through the woods, Valsugana offers plenty of opportunities for those looking to enjoy a winter holiday in the snow in Trentino, away from the crowds of the larger ski resorts.
Skiing in Valsugana: Panarotta and Passo Brocon
For alpine skiing enthusiasts, two of the main destinations are Panarotta, in the mountains above Levico Terme, and Passo Brocon, between Tesino and the Lagorai mountain range.
Panarotta: Skiing and Panoramic Views over Valsugana
Panarotta, easily accessible from Levico Terme, is a mountain destination known for its peaceful atmosphere and stunning views of Valsugana and the Brenta Dolomites.
After a period of closure, the ski resort partially resumed operations during the 2025/26 winter season and is currently undergoing a redevelopment project. Before planning a day on the slopes, we recommend checking which ski lifts and runs are actually open.

Passo Brocon: Skiing and Fun for the Whole Family
Nestled in the heart of the Lagorai mountains, the Passo Brocon – Marande ski area offers approximately 12 km of ski slopes of varying difficulty levels, a beginner's ski area and dedicated spaces for fun in the snow.
It is also a great destination for families with children, thanks to its ski schools, play areas and activities for younger visitors.
One of the most memorable experiences is night skiing on illuminated slopes during scheduled evening openings.

Among the forests of the Lagorai, the plateaus and the mountains surrounding the valley, you can find trails of varying lengths and difficulty levels, surrounded by the peace and quiet of nature.
Before setting off, it is important to choose routes suited to your experience and fitness level and to check the weather and snow conditions. For more challenging routes, hiring a mountain guide is recommended.

This activity is suitable only for those with the necessary experience and equipment, and should always be undertaken after carefully assessing snow conditions and avalanche risk.
