Madonna di Campiglio to Limit Peak-Day Skiers to 14,000 This Winter

The resort says the cap protects piste quality as well as safety, drawing on long-term guest feedback.

Overview

  • The cap will apply during the busiest holiday windows, including December 28, 2025–January 5, 2026 and February 15–22, 2026, with the limit focused on roughly 11:00 to 14:00.
  • Access will be managed by restricting online sales of daily SkiArea passes, supported by a green–yellow–red availability indicator, with no increase to listed prices.
  • Season tickets, multi‑day passes from two days, and pay‑per‑use cards are exempt, and pedestrians may continue to use lift access without restrictions.
  • Operational measures include earlier openings under the Scia Prima program, real‑time camera monitoring of lift queues, and a midday grooming closure on the Vagliana run.
  • Managers cite a decade of surveys linking crowding to lower satisfaction and safety concerns; the policy is expected to affect about 15–20 high‑demand days in a 155‑km, 60‑lift ski area.
