How to get to Santa Caterina Valfurva: by car, by air and parking

Santa Caterina Valfurva sits in Lombardia (Valtellina), Italy, at 1722–2880 m. Getting there mostly comes down to altitude and whether you're driving or flying in — here's the practical part.

Getting to Santa Caterina Valfurva by car

With 1722–2880 m of elevation, the access road often requires winter or M+S-rated tyres, and snow chains can be mandatory on heavy snow days. Check road conditions before you drive up and build in extra time for the last few kilometres of mountain road.

Getting to Santa Caterina Valfurva by air

Look for flights into the international airport closest to Lombardia (Valtellina), Italy, then a transfer or rental car to the resort.

Parking in Santa Caterina Valfurva

Most resorts have paid parking right by the lifts and free options a bit further out with a shuttle. Arriving early on busy days (weekends, holiday weeks) is the difference between parking right at the slopes or walking quite a bit further.
