Madarao

Madarao is a small but charming ski resort that offers great skiing, especially for those looking for off-piste and untouched snow. Despite its size, Madarao offers good terrain, and with few people on weekdays, you can enjoy the powder snow without crowds. There are several slopes here that are left unstoized, which provides good opportunities for freeskiing even after a snow dump.

For the experienced skier, there is fantastic tree skiing. From the highest lift, it's just a short walk to the ridge that leads to a wealth of off-piste options, where you can choose your own lines down to the road. When you're done skiing, just head back to the lifts – a small price to pay for the untouched terrain.

The lift system consists of several chairlifts, including classic single-person chairs. To reach the back of the mountain, it is recommended to purchase a ski pass that also covers the adjacent Tangram area, allowing easier access to more areas. Madarao is perfect for a couple of days of skiing with its combination of pristine snow, good terrain and few people – a real gem for those looking for a more relaxing and authentic skiing experience.
