The Ski Resort
Directly in the centre of San Bernardino you can find the small ski area at Pian Cales. Visitors can expect 5 km of slopes, including one that is certified by the FIS. A long T-bar lift, a baby lift and two magic carpets take visitors up the mountain. There is also a snow park and a sledge run. Every 14 days there is night skiing (usually on Saturdays).
At Pian Cales is the only ski area in San Bernardino. Skiing operations in the much larger Confin 2000 ski area have been discontinued.
