Visitor Reviews of Corvara
Patrick Mulvihill from Australia writes:
I skied in Corvara in season 2010 with 14 other skiers from Australia.
We have all skied all over the world and had such a good time there we are returning for this ski season 2011/12. We found the skiing absolutely fantastic and took guides on a number of days and they took us to places we probably would not have found ourselves. We are all very competent skiers and found many challenging runs. The Selaronda ski tour both ways exceptional fun with many on ski eating areas. We also frequented La Perla restaurant in Corvara and Shria restaurant in Colfosco on a number of occasions, both worth a visit as food was good. We actually stayed in Colfosco and loved it, we are staying there again.
