Winter adventures: skiing & cross-country skiing in Braies - South Tyrol

The magic of winter in Val Pusteria

Experiences between ice and snow

The winter sun glistens in the snow and warms the skin. Outdoor activities entice you outdoors. Winter can be so varied.

From the beginning of December to April, snow is guaranteed. Carve down the slopes, hops on your snowboard, enjoy deep-snow and mogul skiing. Modern lifts, skiing up to 2,500 m, snow-covered ski runs, night skiing, halfpipes and a snow fun park – these are only some of the many highlights. Always included: the captivating view of the Dolomite peaks in the middle of the Unesco World Heritage Dolomites.

Ski area Drei Zinnen

Fun on the slopes at its best

The Residence Bergheim is surrounded by the large ski areas of Dolomiti Superski, all only 15 minutes away:

  • In Alta Pusteria: the ski region of the Tre Cime (Three Peaks) with 5 connected mountains, 115 km of slopes
  • On the other side: the Kronplatz, well known for its wide, almost treeless slopes, 119 km of ski runs and 32 state-of-the-art lifts, is one of the top winter sports destinations in the Dolomites.
  • In the heart of it all: the small beautiful ski area Braies below the northern wall of Picco di Vallandro (Dürrenstein). Perfect for families and beginners who want to take the first “steps” on the snow. SKI RENTAL offers excellent service and the perfect equipment. SKI SCHOOL is where you head if you want to learn to ski and snowboard with trained instructors.
  • Cortina: on the trail of ski world cup athletes with breathtaking views and skiing fun up to 3,200 m altitude.

Recreation far from the daily hustle and bustle

If you are looking for a quiet individual winter experience, Val di Braies is just the place for you offering perfect conditions for winter and snowshoe hiking as well as ski touring.

Ski skins attached – adventure awaits! At your own pace, you climb to the heights of the Braies Dolomites. Their snow-covered peaks stand out in the blue sky. Endurance and willpower are rewarded with an incomparable panoramic view from the summit.  Then find your way through the deep snow down into the valley in a gentle swing.

Across beautiful landscapes

On a winter holiday in South Tyrol everyone will find their own rhythm of life. For example, on over 200 km of perfectly groomed and connected cross-country ski slopes of all difficulty levels in the Dolomite region Tre Cime. This aried winter activity is considered to be one of the healthiest sports, as it combines gentle yet intensive circulation, breathing and muscle training with a pleasant time out in beautiful nature and fresh air.
