Frabosa Soprana is the most historic of Mondole Ski’s three linked sectors, with roots as a mountain resort dating back to the late 19th century. Unlike the purpose-built Artesina and Prato Nevoso, it retains the character of a genuine Alpine village, with Occitan traditions such as the “Kye” carnival. It is also home to the Grotta del Caudano, a karst cave open to visitors, offering an attraction beyond skiing.
Frabosa Soprana has gentle beginner terrain near the village base, suited to first-time skiers and families.
