Skiing in the Val Gardena skiing area - winter sports in the Dolomites

A compulsory appointment for every skier! Skiing around the Sella Massif clockwise or anticlockwise. Nearly 40 kilometres of ski slopes!

The Sellaronda, known far beyond the borders, is one of the most impressive ski circuits in South Tyrol and in the entire Italian Alps. Thanks to well-connected ski lifts and perfectly groomed slopes, you can enjoy many kilometers of pistes in just one day.

Sporty or comfortable to experience Vallunga in the Puez-Odle Nature Park.

The Langental is located in the Puez - Odle Nature Park and offers a fantastic backdrop for cross-country skiers. A total of 12 km of trails lead from the Carabinieri sports center to the end of the valley. Hikers and snowshoers can enjoy the uniqueness of the valley on the specially created walking and hiking trail.
At the starting point are the cross-country ski school and the ski rental.

Monte Pana is situated below the Sassolungo. Here it is ideal for a winter walk.

It is a scenic but extensive circuit, the one that leads from Monte Pana near S. Cristina in Val Gardena to the Alpe di Siusi, Europe's largest mountain pasture. Winter hikers will be thrilled, and who wants, takes the toboggan right away.

The trail runs almost immediately below the Langkofel group on broad, meandering snowdrifts and again and again through forest islands, which are the remnants of the forest that once covered the whole of today's alpine pastures. But the path also leads through the extensive snowscapes of the Alpe di Siusi. Once you have reached the highest point of the hike, you can enjoy a magnificent panorama of the rose garden, Ross teeth and Sciliar.

The Comici hut is known for the special late night festivities under the Sassolungo.

The slogan of the mountain hut is: "At a location that is probably the most beautyful in the Dolomites, we serve you special dishes from the sea, the mountains and -Bella Italia-"

Taste delicious Mediterranean specialties, let yourself be enchanted and spend a lively evening in "Bella Italia". Enjoy an evening full of refinements and a six-course meal in a unique setting at the meeting point of passion.

Thanks to our cooperation with Val Gardena Activ, you can participate in a variety of activities every day. A special experience is the breakfast in the Dantercepies Mountain Lounge at 2.305 m ... and then it continues directly on the many ski slopes in the Dolomiti Superski!

The morning sun colors the sky and reflects in fiery red on the peaks of the Dolomites. It is an extraordinary experience to experience the sunrise at the top station of the Dantercepies railway. After a hearty breakfast in the Dantercepies Mountain Lounge, enjoy a downhill skiing or fat-biking ride on the still untouched track!

Directly accessible by skis is the restaurant Fienile Monte. It is a place for gourmets and connoisseurs! Table reservation required www.fienilemonte.it

"Fienile Monte" is a small but fine restaurant, unique in detail, in a breathtaking setting, in the middle of the slopes of the Col Rodella - Sella Pass. But not only that. The hospitality and professionalism, framed by hearty delicacies promises to be an unforgettable experience ... and a good drop is never missing!

After a long day of skiing, let off steam! In Selva you cannot miss the pubs "La Stua" and "Luislkeller"!

Experience the most exciting après-ski experiences every day and plunge into the trendy Après Ski restaurants of Wolkenstein after an eventful day on the skis: a large and varied selection of aperitifs, cocktails, long drinks and schnapps as well as snacks and small satiated drinks will leave the holidaymaker's heart beat faster. Après Ski is packed with fun until the wee hours!

Nearby is the ice rink Pranives where you can skate and watch ice hockey.

Doing disco music or spending an afternoon differently ... Ice skating is always fun, returning with a smile to your childhood or giving your kids a treat to "walk on ice"

You can rent ice skates on site.

Skiing around the whole Val Gardena on the "Gardena Ronda" or explore in the footsteps of the first world war on the "Giro della Grande Guerra".

The first World War is the subject of this tour, which is nevertheless optimistic, because in the magnificent mountains of the Dolomites you can see how precious peace is. Austrian Kaiserjäger and German Alpenkorps delivered fierce battles to Italian Alpini from May 1915 to November 1917. Around the epicenter of the fighting, the Col di Lana, the tour runs under the walls of famous peaks such as Sassongher, Sella and Marmolada.

It's a day trip on dream packs for the whole family. Spectacular are the descent from Lagazuoi to Armentarola and the longest piste in the Dolomites, from Punta Rocca via the Marmolada glacier to Malga Ciapela.
