About this trip: The White Arena provides outstanding skiing for intermediates and enough hard-core black runs and off-piste skiing to challenge the most advanced skier. Beginners can keep busy on the Vorab glacier or under La Siala peak. Langlaufers have 60 km of double-tracked loops and there’s an 8 km skate loop. This year our hotel is located directly in Flims. This trip includes only bed & breakfast, giving the participants the chance to sample a dinner in town.
