The Women's Downhill event will be held in Cortina d'Ampezzo, on the mythical Olympia delle Tofane slope. The Olympia delle Tofane, known as the "Queen of Speed," is one of the most iconic slopes in the world for its technical complexity and the dramatic natural scenery of the Dolomites.

Downhill is considered the premier discipline and is the longest and, after the Slalom, second-oldest alpine skiing competition.

Downhill emphasizes "the six components of technique, courage, speed, risk, physical condition, and judgement", according to the FIS International Ski Competition Rules.
