The runs of Ovovia and Pulicchio

Abetone - The runs of Ovovia and Pulicchio
Our President Rolando Galli and a group of his friends take you to discover the wonderful slopes of Ovovia and Pulicchio. (Commentary in Italian)
 

 

 

Zeno 1

The steepest and most difficult run at Abetone. Very wide at the start, it has some large bumps in the middle before it joins Zeno 2 as it enters the narrower forest trail. Little traffic and ideal for skiing in fresh snow.

Technical Data:
Category: Black. Length: 1300m. Vertical Descent: 350m (1900-1550)

Zeno 2

A run for everyone, with some challenging steeps. Wide and long through the first part of the woods, then 3 steep sections in a row followed by a long straight semi-flat leading to the final part of the trail through the woods which everyone will enjoy.

Technical Data:
Category: Red. Length: 2500m. Vertical Descent: 570m (1900-1330)

Zeno 3 Slalom Run

Quite a demanding run. The top part runs along the divide affording panoramic views, after which it is faces the most beautiful wide and steep slope to the right.
The central part is characterised by a long straight with a moderate slope leading to the start of the slalom run, a new track that draws a series of unmistakable 'figure of eights' in the snow. This part is the most difficult with sections full of elevation changes and is often the scene of competitions at all levels.

Technical Data:
Category: Red. Length: 2600m. Vertical Descent: 570m (1900-1330)

Stucchi

The longest run at Abetone and a modest challenge. It begins at the end of the button lift link from the Seletta area. Starting with a slightly steep section, it then slips into the woods in a series of rollercoaster undulations. For the final part there are two choices - going to the left you will join Zeno 2, or to the right there is a new section of track which takes you across to Riva and thence back to Seletta by chairlift.

Technical Data:
Category: Red. Length: 3000m. Vertical Descent: 570m (1900-1330)

Nursery Slope Area

To the right of the Ovovia base station is the nursery slope area designed especially for those who are starting to ski. It is served by the Ovovia Magic Carpet which smoothly, safely and simply glides along to the delight of young and old as they rapidly learn the basics. Then they can progress onto the Zeno 3 button lift which takes them up to the easier category blue section of the Zeno 3 run.

 

Seghi

One of the nicest runs in the Pulicchio area, it is reached from Monte Gomito via a branch off Zeno 3. It is also served directly from Faidello base station by a fast, modern detachable quad covered chairlift. It starts with a very wide steep section with a difficulty level ranging between blue, red and borderline black depending on where you choose. The slope then gently undulates down through the relaxing forest area until it arrives at Faidello base station.

Technical Data:
Category: Blue/Red. Length: 2100m. Vertical Descent: 440m (1680-1240)

Coppi

A challenging run, often used for competitions of all levels. A mild start with panoramic vistas leads into the central part of the route which is more challenging. It is characterised by deep rollercoaster undulations and two particularly steep slopes, the second of which poses a serious challenge even to more expert skiers. So that intermediates can still enjoy it, an easier opt-out across onto Seghi is provided as an alternative route down to Faidello base station.

Technical Data:
Category: Blue/Red. Length: 2200m. Vertical Descent: 440m (1680-1240)

Pulicchio

A slope with a lot of character, which runs through woodland.
