Pros: Beautiful scenery, not too busy on the non-learner slopes and ski-lifts
Cons: No apres ski at all, no nightlife, small selection of slopes, poor piste markings
Summary: The snowboarding was OK but not too many slopes to choose from in Cortina (& snowboarding is not very popular here). Bought an expensive Dolomiti Superski pass but hardly used it as the nearest resorts of a size worth visiting are just too far away.
