Glacier skiing is in full summer swing in Italy once again.

Looking to cool off in Italy this summer? Your are just in luck, following the re-opening of the country’s third glacier, Val Senales this past week.  It joins Passo Stelvio and the Presena glacier above Passo Tonale, which had one red and one black run open at the weekend but it likely to close in the near future.  However, Cervinia will re-open a week on Saturday for summer skiing and boarding keeping the Italian choices up at three.

Val Senales, in Italy’s South Tyrol, opened its Nitro Snowpark for the summer season on Saturday with a special opening party including barbecue BBQ, beer and “Tirolerpfeif”.

Summer events during the six-week summer snow season includes  a Rookie Camp for children from July 23^rd to 10^th and a ‘Koolt Action Weekend’ with Skate/Snow/BMX and soccer and beach volleyball tournaments.
