    Very informative videos and well done! The slopes seem pretty empty. When did you film that? Wonder whether mid-January will be as non-crowded as in your videos?

      First of all, many thanks for your feedback! Appreciate that. Video was made in March of 2024 as the title displays. We provide all information without any changes , as it was recorded on the air. Video was made very early in the morning, we literally took the first Gondola and hit the slopes right at 9 a.m., when the area was open to the public. Usually, in the middle of the day, it can get crowded, but we never felt that it was packed like on the Sellaronda Loop (should say some parts of it, not the entire loop). Every season is different, and the amount of crowds is driven by the snow so it's hard to predict next January but usually end of Jan is the most popular time at many and most popular destinations around the world, so you should expect more people in January vs February-March. Also, prices for lodging will be very sensitive to the number of people, but if money is not an issue, you may expect a better skiing experience in January, assuming enough snowfall in December- early January.

      Don't forget to check video cameras to see the slopes if you are not planning to buy lodging and passes in advance. In this way, you will know what to expect.

    Thank you so much for another great video.😊
    When do you think is the best time to visit Alpe Di Siusi for the snow and weather? It seems March is a little bit late.

    • @nextoutdooradventures

      Thank you for your feedback! Usually, in many destinations for skiers and snowboarders, late December through February is the best time for winter adventures. In addition, some locations may have decent snow conditions during the first week of March. I would say that the second half of January should be a safe bet, but don't quote us on predicting the weather 😃
      We visited Dolomites in the middle of March, just 2 weeks ago, and were super lucky to have a snowfall at our arrival. Surprisingly, even now, things aren't looking bad, but January is usually the best month, based on our experience visiting different destinations around the world.

    Very informative. We are planning a trip in early December 2024. We are beginners and after those long and gentle slopes with magnificent views. Which slope would you recommend? Thanks

    • @nextoutdooradventures
      @nextoutdooradventures  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks for your feedback. If you are a beginner, we would recommend starting with a visit to the beginner area located hundred meters away from the lower gondola station. Once you are more or less in control of your moves, you can head up and stay on blue ones. Also ski school offices and rentals are available in many locations so I would suggest get a lesson at least for the first day. Make sure to tell them what language the instructor should speak and your level. If you have any other questions please let us know!

      Many long slopes are on the far side from the gondola, but to get there will take time, and a few of those may not be gentle.

    Also, looks like you are following a Saslong ski instructor/guide all the time... Is Saslong school good for GROUP lessons (advanced level)? Or is it better to go with Ortisei ski school?

    • @nextoutdooradventures
      @nextoutdooradventures  3 месяца назад +1

      I'm not sure about group lessons. I always believed that a good ski lesson can be taken in a group of 1 or 2 people max. Otherwise, the instructor may have a hard time checking on you as you practice/ski. I think there is not a big difference between the schools, it's all depends on the instructors' availability, their backgrounds and the language that you speak. I would suggest going and talking to both offices and then making a choice. If you are looking for advance training, I would think a former professional skier is the best choice as otherwise you may end up learning basic stuff that you can practice yourself by watching videos from RUclips platform or other source of your choice. Hope it helps, but let us know if you have more questions, and if you go there , please share your experiences. Having the best snow is the key, but running into the crowds isn't big fun either. Unless you are planning the Sellaronda Loop, you should be fine. By the way, Seceda had the least number of people as it has more advanced terrain but top to bottom trails can be packed after 10-30 am so going there early is the best option.
