Cross-country skiing in a fairytale setting

Day 1

Cross-country skiing in a fairytale setting

We arrive at Boè Apartments in the evening. From the balcony, the view of Sassolungo is stunning. The next day we head to Monte Pana for cross-country skiing. We rent the equipment and follow the easy Palusc trail, perfect with kids. Snow everywhere, quiet and peaceful. For lunch, schnitzel and fries, then back home to relax.

Sledding fun

Day 2

Sledding fun

Today is all about fun. We go to Ortisei and take the Resciesa funicular up. We rent sledges and start the run, fast, exciting, full of laughter. The sun is shining, so we go again and again, getting more confident each time. The kids don’t want to stop. One of the best days of the trip.

Day 3

Alpe di Siusi magic

Day 3

Alpe di Siusi magic

We take the cable car from Ortisei to Alpe di Siusi. The view is incredible: open space, wooden huts, sledges, and wide snowy fields. We enjoy an easy walk to Sanon hut and stop for Kaiserschmarren. Warm, sweet, and perfect. A relaxed ending before heading home, full of good memories.
