Join us on this spectacular La Villa ski holiday for solo women and enjoy skiing in the Italian Dolomites.
Whether you’re a ‘speed queen’, a technical expert or a teeterer at the top of a piste, it’s a recognized fact that women process information and assess situations differently. We’ve a strong, inbuilt instinct to protect ourselves, calculating and pre-empting potential risks prior to undertaking a task.
Whatever your level, our approach to our Women Only Tours allows for more relaxed, empathetic skiing, where women can operate at their best, without being coaxed into going faster and steeper than instinct tells them is against their nature.
A WoW ski experience is not supposed to be ‘onward, upward and faster’, or about being part of the ‘clique’.
So, if you are looking for an approach that gives you the opportunity to hone your technique at your own pace, yet explore and challenge your own limits, to be part of a small exclusive group of wonderful women, and to be guided down every slope , then this tour is perfect for you.
Each day, according to the level of the group, the snow conditions and weather, your qualified instructor will select a tour from one of the suggested itineraries of the 12 Dolomiti Superski areas. The tour will lead you down fabulous tracks, from cruisy blues to black thrillers, spectacular scenery, mouth watering lunches, always ending with an aperitif, before returning home and preparing for dinner at your hotel or one of the many local hostelries we frequent.

Itinerary
You'll have been collected from the airport and helped to settle into your welcoming comfortable accommodation. You've sipped a little Prosecco on arrival and been presented with a delicious dinner before retiring to your private room.
Can I get my own room? Yes, your tour price includes single use of a double room with no single supplement or single rooms when available at your choice of hotel accommodation, always within easy reach of the main tracks.
The sun is up, as it usually is, you're in the beautiful Dolomites. You're now ready for your first day's skiing on your WoW Ski tour…
After a scrummy breakfast in your hotel, we will meet you, usually around 08.30, to take you on our daily ski tour. You'll either ski direct from your accommodation, or be taken by van to one of the 12 Dolomiti Superski areas for that day's itinerary. With over 1200Km of pristine corduroy skiing to choose from, you're spoiled for choice!
Help with Ski Hire & Equipment. We'll already have made sure you have all the appropriate equipment before we leave the resort and we'll accompany you to the local hire shop for those of you that require skis, boots or other equipment.
I'm traveling alone – who will I be skiing with? You'll be with other independent skiers in a small but exclusive group of no more than 8, plus your dedicated ski instructor for the week.
How will I know where I am going? No track maps required on our tours!
We'll have done all the planning and assessed the weather and conditions prior to heading out each day. We'll continue to assess the day as it progresses to ensure your enjoyment and safety.
Unlike some ski tour companies, we do not assign you a different 'rep' each day, we assign you a dedicated ski instructor who will be escorting you all day, every day. *excl. free ski day
We have roughly 20 years of accumulated local knowledge and will mix it up from a well-trodden route to one of our 'mystery tours' from any of our list of secret locations. If you're heading off piste you'll also have the additional services of our IFMGA guide – whose knowledge of the Dolomites is astounding!
How will I know the best places to stop? We will have pre-selected the best refuge for morning coffee, we'll already have pre-booked lunch – to avoid any pesky queues. We'll also advise you on the best spots for those enviable photos, hot chocolate stops, where to go for the most delicious strudel, and even some spectacular loos! – where you don't even have to clamber downstairs in ski boots, and many more handy hints!
Afternoon aperitif or hot chocolate. We'll have already decided on where to stop for that necessary afternoon snack or hot drink in each of the superski areas we visit. All have different strengths to offer: Some offer wonderful views with sun terraces, some are hidden enoteca – wine bars, some serve the best 'bombardini' – a very alcoholic hot egg nog, guaranteed to out the tiger in your tank and our favorite hugo – prosecco, elderflower, tonic water, a twist of fresh tangerine and a sprig of mint. Fortunately we've tried them all…….or nearly!
Do I dine with the group? And it is. We encourage our guests to dine together to share the day's experiences. This helps create an empathetic group dynamic.
Our charming accommodation offers 6 nights half board with mouth-watering Italian cuisine, including a special dinner dedicated to local gastronomic goodies and a gala evening. One night is not included in the half board option. We will book a delightful local hostelry to allow you to experience dining out in the village (at the guest's expense).
There will also be a complementary evening aperitif in our chalet, where you are invited to join us for a glass or two and get that 'house party vibe' going, before we return you to the village for your delicious evening meal.
Once back at your hotel you can relax before heading to bed. There is a beautiful swimming pool and wellness center (tour dependent) and relaxation areas to ease those weary muscles after all those slopes!
