Castione Della Presolana is a ski area, not a resort at all. So, you must understand that you will not use every lift in the same day. The ski areas are not connected, and use different tickets. I did some snowboard at Monte Pora area. Cool people, nice restaurants, not so fast lifts, but ok! This is not intended for tourists, so everybody is from Milan...nice! Pretty decent vertical at Pora Cima, very radical. There is a good terrain park too. Good pistes for beginners, too. I do recommend! Read More
