Folgàrida offers an inviting start for beginners. Everyone begins at the top of the Belvedere gondola, at the Malghet Aut beginner zone. After some lessons here, the adjacent blue runs become the next adventure, and in no time, skiers might find themselves taking the scenic Azzurra route, a delightful blue track weaving through the trees, back down to the town.

For the intermediate skier, Folgàrida is a web of exploration. After warming up on the easy runs near Belvedere gondola, the trails lead to Madonna di Campiglio. Speedy lifts connect a multitude of blues and reds, such as the leisurely Graffer from Passo Grostè and the gentle Pradalago Facile. However, for those craving a challenge, the steeper reds of Spinale Diretta and Fortini on Monte Spinale beckon.
