Pista Olimpica 'Kandahar Banchetta Giovanni Nasi'

One of the iconic downhill ski runs of the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics, the 'Kandahar Banchetta' offers an exhilarating challenge for experienced skiers. This black-rated slope starts from Monte Banchetta (2800m, accessible from Fraiteve) and descends towards Sestriere. It features steep gradients, demanding turns, and high-speed sections, making it a true test of skill and nerve. While its full length and difficulty are reserved for expert skiers, it provides a unique opportunity to ski on the tracks of Olympic champions. Access is included with a Vialattea ski pass. The piste is fully monitored and groomed daily during the winter season.
