The Dolomites!
From an aesthetics point of view, nowhere else I have been comes close. Gonna get a bit controversial here, but compared to the Dollies, the rest are 'just' mountains.

Hi Gaz C,

Thank you for your vote :thumbup:
Would you be able to pick a resort or two within Dolomites as your favourite for views?
i think it is a bit unfair on other ski areas as Dolomites are so vast and encompass so many resorts?

Hope to hear from you:)

Hi Gaccy,

I am lucky to have skied in Whistler. The views, particularly towards a lake are very nice.
However as the mountains are lower than Alps or Dolomites, IMHO scenery is not quite as beautiful or dramatic.
