 Poster: A snowHead
|
hi all!
I am a keep/pro photographer and I an going skiing next week staying at the Granvara Relais hotel in Val Gardena (st Christina).
I always take my camera with me....can anyone recommend the best places on the area for photo opportunities?
I will be skiing so has to be on the ski runs, or perhaps evening villages that make for great options.
I know the area will be super picturesque anywhere i go but i dont want to miss out on any areas that are real gems.
Thanks!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@peterhughes88, really what @hobbiteater said, there are 'real gems' on practically every turn and they are all differently gem-like at different times of day. Honestly, you'll be lucky to get down any run without feeling the need to stop.

The sunset at the top of the Dantecepies lift was pretty special - I have many pics of that from last year. Plus the route back towards Selva from where La Longia starts. I loved that view.
But everywhere in the Dolomites* was just stunning.

Would agree that pretty much anywhere and everywhere is stunning photographically. I'm just a happy snapper, so here's a few from last year.

@peterhughes88, if you get as far as Cinque Torri then the rock tower formations there are very photogenic. Note that although it's called Cinque Torri one of the five rock towers that gave the place its Italian name collapsed many years ago, so it's more like Four and a Half Towers now!

Hidden Valley is the place to go. The skiing isn't great but the scenery is something else.

@Alastair Pink, My climbing guide book claims there are in fact 7 towers, though one as you say has fallen down.
The Seceda telephrique from St Ulrich give access to a iconic view point with the clasic ridge view of gentle pastures on the south side and a rock face (with a footpath) on the north. There are good views of the Odlegruppa mountains as well.
Travelling up the valley gives wonderful views of Langkofel and the Sella massive.
As others have pointed out the whole area is hugely photogenic.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I’d agree, pretty much everywhere, I was however particularly struck by the field of rocks between lifts 49 and 51 on the red Sella Circuit.
