What is the skiing like in Italy?
I am going to the ski resort called 'Abetone' so any information on that would be much appreciated!

Top tips for skiing - how do you learn ASAP?
Skiing in Italy can be great! I lived in Europe for ten years and worked in Outdoor Recreation for the Army, so I got around, lol. I can offer some really good advice.It sounds like you already chose where you are going, so I'll skip the "where to go" thing. (Are your plans carved in stone?)
Here's some stuff to remember. Europe is not the US, many differences, most are very pleasureable. However, depending on where exactly you are going, you need to know some things. Ski Rentals: If you are planning to rent, be prepared to get dull edged raggedy crap. So unless you have your own equipment, do whatever it takes to tell them you want high end, TUNED skis.
There are a lot of variables concerning snow, and it doesn't look like Abetone is in the Alps. So, don't count on snow, sorry. With luck you will have some, but only the Alps are reliable. Abetone is for beginners and intermediates, which means it is not high. Do you ski well?
You might look into alternate places to drive to, if you will have a car, just in case.
Feel free to contact me if you'd like, I loved skiing Europe, know a lot of easy helpful hints, like to know I can help people enjoy their trips, and, well, I am of 100% Italian descent, lol. When I skied Italy, it was Amoretto shots and Cappocinos everywhere! LOL. Italians are nice, and at least you won't be in France. LOL!

Skiing and scenery are great , but once the lifts are closed, so too are the towns. I haven't been to many ski areas in Italy, but the apres ski is pretty much nonexistent in the places I have been.More Questions & Answers...
