Civetta and Pelmo, then, are giants of the Dolomites, at the centre of a region which is among the most famous in the world. They are surrounded by the Sella Group, by the Pale of S. Martino, by the Tofane, by the mountains that stand behind Cortina d'Ampezzo and by the Marmolada, that have seen their slopes merging into one of the most beautiful ski networks.
Ski Civetta has thus become the biggest ski area of the Veneto region located between the Marmolada and Cortina d'Ampezzo that joins together the ski resorts of Alleghe, Zoldo, Selva di Cadore and Palafavera.
Ski Civetta offers 80 kilometres (50 miles) of pistes, 27 ski lifts, cable cars, etc. which can carry up about 30000 people an hour. Nearly all the pistes are covered with planned snow - 70 kilometres of artificial snow produced by 75 spray machines. Most of the pistes are at a height of between 1500 and 2000 metres above seal level, thus ensuring a base of natural snow for the whole winter season.
Ski Civetta also offers, at Zoldo, five kilometres of illuminated piste for night skiing served by a fast cable car and 40 kilometres of cross-country runs, two of which are illuminated.
