Hello, going on a road trip next week with my daughter. Picking up a car in Munich and hoping to ski at Cortina and check out the Italian side of things. If anybody has any suggestions of other resorts to hit along the way, that would be much appreciated. Maybe hit one place before Cortina in between Munich and Italy. I'd like to drive about two hours after skiing and switching to the next mountain or resort. My dates on the slopes are between the 13th and 20th of March. Hoping for great weather, food and seeing Italian ski culture. Ciao!
Thanks in Advance.
If you're coming from North America and you've already got some sort of commitment to going to Cortina, then I wouldn't recommend stopping anywhere along the way to ski.
First, you'll be jet lagged, so you probably won't be in any shape to ski that first day. Second, Cortina is part of a huge ski area that should keep you entertained for you're entire trip.
Any resort hopping just means more packing/unpacking and checking in/out, which is unnecessary if you're already going to be visiting a gigantic ski area with enough terrain to keep you happy your whole trip. The only reason to do it is if you have some need to check names off of a list.
If I were you, I'd spend the first day taking your time getting to Cortina and getting settled in, and then I'd spend the rest ot the time skiing the whole area around there.
