Description
A summer and winter holiday resort located in a high, winding green plain at the base of the Sarentini Mountains, connected by a panoramic road and a daring cable railroad to the nearby town of Merano.

The ski area, situated on the slopes of the Pivigna Alps and of Mount S. Osvaldo, includes 8 lift facilities that reach a maximum elevation of 2360 meters. From this altitude numerous slopes of varying difficulty, covering 39 km overall, take off. Lovers of cross-country skiing can train on two circuits located near Falzeben, which extend over a total of 10 km. For after-ski activity we note: covered swimming pools near the hotels, ice stadium, cinema, bars, restaurants and discotheques.
