Cima Le Sorti is one of the few south-facing offpiste descents. Which translates into: pure fun with good snow and low temperatures, slush when the temperature rises! Here are two itineraries, the first is better suited to skiers seeing that you have to push a fair bit to reach Bocchetta Bleis. The second, better suited to snowboarders, is slightly shorter and takes a long diagonal line beneath Cima le Sorti to join up with the preceding itinerary.

Getting there

Cima Le Sorti skiing:
From the top of the Bleis chairlift head towards the Alpino piste. After a few meters cross the slope to the the right of the piste, by ascending slightly. Cut through the upper bowl towards Bocchetta Bleis (2458m). Usually the last meters are carried out on foot, by following the summer path. Strap your skis on again and ski along the left-hand side of the ridge, southwards. At the end of the ridge descend down the wide open slope which channels into a pine forest and the SS42 road. Cross this close to two mountain huts and return via the Pegra piste to the mid-station (1634m)

Cima Le Sorti snowboard:
From the top of the Bleis chairlift ki towards the Alpino piste. After circa 100m begin the long diagonal descent rightwards. Pass above Malga Serodine and traverse across the SE slope of Cima Le Sorti to reach the preceding itinerary and the wide open slope. Notes
