ACTIVITIES AROUND KRONPLATZ

With a total of 119 kilometres of ski runs, Kronplatz is one of the top winter sports destinations and attracts numerous snow enthusiasts. That is why it is the most popular active mountain in the region.

The Puster Valley and its side valleys offer a wide variety of possibilities for all skiing professionals - with four large and three smaller ski areas there are many slopes to explore, whether on skis or snowboard.

Ski touring is fascinating and challenging at the same time: climbing up the mountain through untouched slopes, consciously perceiving the silence of the mountains and enjoying nature beyond the prepared slopes.
Kronplatz and the Puster valley are perfect for ski touring. There are various routes for all levels of ability.

Tobogganing is always fun, no matter whether you follow the path with your own sledge all the way up, or whether you rent a sledge comfortably on the top of the mountain before you start off. The Kronplatz holiday region offers various possibilities to ski down the slopes on a sledge.
Only a few minutes' walk from the hotel, very comfortable but full of action: take the “Korer” cable car to the top station and then back down to the valley on the toboggan run next to the ski slope.

If you are passionate about climbing, you don't have to wait until summer. Grab an ice pick, swap your climbing shoes for crampons and climb the ice wall.
Especially fascinating: the Reinbach waterfalls in Sand in Taufers (accessible in only 25 minutes)

Through snow-covered forests and with perfectly groomed trails in the valley or in high altitude, cross-country skiing in South Tyrol offers just the right conditions for endurance athletes, but also for everyone who wants to enjoy the wonderful winter scenery.   
The first cross-country ski runs are at 10 minutes walking distance from the hotel in the Reischach Sports Park.
Around Kronplatz there are also the cross-country skiing areas of Kasern im Ahrntal (45 km), Antholzertal (28 km), Gsieser Tal (34 km) and San Vigilio (18 km).

Quiet landscapes far away from tracked winter roads and all you hear is the soft crunch of the snow under your shoes. Snowshoeing is a great way to enjoy the untouched nature all to yourself.

The biathlon mecca in South Tyrol is undoubtedly located in Antholz, where the Biathlon World Cup is held every year. The cross-country ski slopes run for over 60 kilometers through the Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park and will leave even the toughest athletes breathless with their stunning views. 

Courses are available all year round.

Our ski experts accompany you both on and off the slopes, whether you require an individualized technique lesson, custom-made private lessons, or a personal ski guide to the most spectacular huts.
