By train via Trento and then bus, it comes to about 5 hours and €25–40 per person.
There's also a direct seasonal coach from Milan and Verona, but it runs only once a day.
The route by car
From Orio al Serio airport, the car joins the A4 motorway heading east towards Brescia. At the Brescia Est exit it turns into the mountains: along the SS45bis past Salò and Lake Idro, then onto the SS237. That stretch is about 130 km, with mountain road at the end.
There's a second route as well, off the A22 motorway through Trento.
In Trentino, winter tyres or chains are compulsory from 15 November to 15 April. In winter our cars run on winter tyres, and the driver carries chains.
The 2 h 50 min is a winter time, with some margin for the climb. In heavy snow the trip can take longer.
Train, coach or hire car compared
Train and bus via Trento. First the train to Trento, with a change. There you board a Trentino Trasporti bus, which spends about two hours climbing Val Rendena.
That's the longest part of the journey, all on mountain roads. Door to door, expect roughly 5 hours and two changes.
Direct seasonal coach. In winter there are direct runs to Campiglio from Milan and Verona, but just one a day, on its own timetable. It won't fit around your flight. If your plane is late or lands in the evening, the next coach is a day away, and seats have to be reserved ahead.
Hire car. From €60 a day, with the same 2 h 50 min drive. Bear in mind that traffic is restricted in central Campiglio and parking is paid.
Car with driver: price and terms
You see the fare in the form straight away, with no sign-up. Once confirmed it doesn't change, whatever the traffic or the weather. Motorway tolls, luggage and 60 minutes' waiting at the airport are included.
Ski carriage is included. Tell us how many ski bags you have and we'll pick a car big enough for everything. Child seats for any age are free.
Work it out for your own group: two people in a saloon pay €190 each, four in a minivan €120 each. In daylight and with light bags, train and bus cost less, and they're a workable option.
The car is better value if you land in the evening, travel as a family or group, and don't want to depend on the one seasonal coach.
You're met in the arrivals hall by a driver holding a sign with your name. We send their name and the car's number plate the day before. We track your flight, so a delay moves the pick-up at no extra charge.
Since July 2026, cars with drivers at Bergamo airport may wait only in the NCC areas of the P1 and P2 car parks. You walk to the car together with the driver.
Where the car stops in Campiglio
The centre around Piazza Righi is pedestrianised. If your hotel is inside that zone, the driver will stop at its edge or use the underground garage at Piazza Sissi. Other car parks are by the Grostè, Spinale and Colarin lifts.
The resort itself is compact. A free ski bus goes to the lifts, so you won't need a car of your own here.
The ski area and the 2026/27 season
Madonna di Campiglio sits at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites. Its ski area, Skiarea Campiglio Dolomiti di Brenta, is part of Skirama Dolomiti, together with Folgarida and Pinzolo. There are about 150 km of pistes.
The 2026/27 season begins on 21 November 2026.
3Tre, Wednesday 23 December 2026. A World Cup night slalom on the Canalone Miramonti slope. Around then the centre is packed and shuttles run from the outer car parks. If you're arriving on 22 or 23 December, allow extra time for the journey.
