Seasonal Experience

Spring Season at Campo Imperatore

Spring at Campo Imperatore is a season of awakening and dramatic contrasts. Early spring sees the gradual melting of vast snowfields, giving way to streams and nascent wildflowers, while the highest peaks remain capped in white. This period offers unique opportunities for backcountry skiing in specific areas (often requiring expert knowledge and equipment) and early season snowshoeing. As the season progresses, the plateau bursts into a vibrant green, carpeted with alpine flora. Birdwatching becomes particularly rewarding as migratory species return. The melting snow nourishes the landscape, creating lush pastures. Access can be variable; the cable car typically reopens after a maintenance break, and the scenic road gradually becomes passable as snow removal progresses. Spring is a time of renewal, offering a raw and dynamic experience of the mountain, perfect for those who appreciate the transition from winter's slumber to summer's full bloom, with a sense of quiet adventure.
