Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm considering getting a trip into a European ski destination in early/mid December, and I'm curious how much I can push it, or what the pros/cons might be. I was looking at Dec 11-17, for example.
It seems like, from what I've read, the dolomites are a particularly good choice for early season with their snowmaking, but I'd be open to other suggestions too!

Tignes - it's high, and has good snow making.

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

@BeanBean, Dolomites are an excellent choice. In the good old days of MountainSun I always used to have a pre-xmas 4 day trip around the dates you mention

I have been to Kronplatz in November on more than one occasion. Not everything open, but enough to keep me happy.
But although Kronplatz is on the Superdolomiti lift pass, it is definitely not the main Dolomite scenery or ski area.
I would expect you to find enough generally

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

You will be fine mid december in the Dolomites : Their snowmaking will ensure that the slopes are open

Only if the temperatures allow it.

Kronplatz usually the first to open.
As long as things are cold enough for them to fire up the snow making.
