The 2013/14 session was exceptional for Cortina and we went in the last week of March and had fantastic conditions. The pistes were in great condition and very well prepared. South facing slopes were not usable after 2.00 but the north and high altitude areas were still hard at 4.30. The resort is designed for intermediate cruisers and was empty. No lift queues all week and brilliant restaurants and helpful friendly people. The lack of ski convenience is a problem and in late session they reduce the bus service and so having a car or staying in a hotel or chalet that has a minibus service is a must. The Hotel Victoria is run by Inghams and is excellent. The resort is great value for money compared to France and Switzerland.
