Cortina d’Ampezzo is one of the most iconic ski resorts in the Dolomites, set within a wide, sunlit valley and surrounded by some of the most dramatic peaks in the Alps. Unlike fully connected ski domains, Cortina’s skiing is spread across several distinct mountain sectors, each offering its own terrain profile, altitude range and skiing experience. From the extensive slopes of the Tofana area to the quieter terrain of Faloria and the scenic routes around Lagazuoi, understanding how the ski area is structured is essential before you arrive.

Understanding the Cortina d'Ampezzo ski map
The Cortina is centred around a wide valley, with the town positioned in the middle and several distinct ski sectors spread across both sides rather than forming one continuous ski area:
-
To the west of the town, the Tofana sector rises directly above Cortina and forms the largest and most interconnected part of the ski area. On the map, this is where you see the highest concentration of lifts and pistes, with long vertical descents linking upper areas such as Ra Valles down towards the resort. This sector offers the most continuous skiing, with a strong mix of blue, red and black runs.
-
On the east side of the valley, the Faloria and Cristallo sectors are clearly separated from Tofana and from each other. Faloria sits above the town with a compact network of lifts and a good spread of intermediate and advanced pistes, while Cristallo appears further north-east with fewer lifts and more fragmented terrain.
-
Further west beyond Tofana, the Lagazuoi and 5 Torri area is shown as a remote extension of the ski area. It is not directly connected by lifts and is typically accessed via road or ski bus. On the map, this sector stands out for its long, scenic descents and more open terrain, including routes linking towards the Alta Badia area.
-
At the far edges of the map, smaller independent areas such as Auronzo, Misurina and San Vito di Cadore are also visible. These sectors operate separately with their own lift systems and are accessed by transport rather than skis.
