    The "Panorama" Ski Tour is basically the ski-on-foot sightseeing route along the Val di Fassa.

    Starting from Arabba, more precisely from the "Porta Vescovo" side, you reach Passo Pordoi then continue towards the "Ciampac" ski area.

    From here you arrive at the "Buffaure" locality, where you find the entrance to the famous "Vulcano" slope (Note: black slope for experts) which, with its thrilling gradients, leads down to the town of Pozza di Fassa.
