Cortina d'Ampezzo, with its majestic peaks and long sporting tradition, will be one of the stars of the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. Some of the most spectacular and symbolic disciplines of the entire event will take place here: women's alpine skiing, bobsleigh, skeleton, and curling.
The women's alpine skiing competitions will be held on the legendary Olympia delle Tofane, one of the most iconic slopes on the women's World Cup circuit.
With its 2,560 meters, famous passages such as the “Schuss” with a maximum gradient of 65%, the “Salto Duca d'Aosta” and the “Gran Curvone,” the Olympia delle Tofane represents the emblem of power, grace, and technique in the high mountains. Watching the athletes descend is like witnessing a spectacle where sport and nature merge.
The “Eugenio Monti” Sliding Center, named after the legendary champion from Ampezzo, continues a century-old tradition in international bobsleigh. It is here that Cortina has written memorable pages in international bobsleigh history, hosting competitions that have made the resort famous throughout the world. During the Games, the icy curves of the track will once again be the scene of high-speed action, with bobsleigh and skeleton competitions.
Not far away, curling will find its home in the historic Olympic stadium, the same venue that hosted the 1956 Games. In Cortina, this discipline is a living tradition: a link between past and future that has found new protagonists such as Stefania Costantini, Olympic gold medalist in the mixed doubles at Beijing 2022. Each match is a perfect balance of precision, concentration, and strategy.
