The best time for skiing is from mid-December to April when the weather conditions are the most stable. Otherwise, the ski resorts in the Dolomites usually open their slopes for business at the beginning of December, but the proportion of open ski runs depends on the snow conditions. In the first days of December, some connecting runs to other ski resorts may not be open yet.
