Off to the slopes:
Skiing in Dobbiaco & in the Dolomites
Spoil for choice: our farm is located in the middle of three large ski areas of the Dolomites Superski, 3 Zinnen/Three Peaks Dolomites, Plan de Corones and Cortina d'Ampezzo
5 ski mountains connected to a ski area - how does that sound? The ski area 3 Zinnen offers 100 kilometers of slopes of different degrees of difficulty for every skill level and lots of winter adventures. Skiing here is guaranteed to be an experience. The 3 Zinnen Dolomites Ski Area is just 500 meters away from the Rienz Ski Center in Dobbiaco. In the small but beautiful ski center, not only beginners and families with children are welcome. Also ski clubs and professionals skiers from all nations have chosen the ski area and the Trenker slope as a suitable race track for training.
You can easily reach the ski area Kronplatz in half an hour by train. Ideal for advanced skiers as it has 5 black runs, the "Black 5" - but also very long, soft and wide slopes to offer. The huge ski area covers 119 km of slopes and connects Bruneck with St. Vigil of Marebbe and Olang. A highlight is the Messner Mountain Museum MMM-Corones, which is located at the top – and it’s an architectural jewel of Zaha Hadid. Kronplatz is part of the Dolomiti Superski ski carousel and, with a 15-minute bus ride, allows the connection to Alta Badia and to the world-famous Sellaronda.
With an half an hour drive through the wild and romantic Landro Valley, past the Three Preaks and the shimmering red Croda Rossa/Hohe Gaisl, will take you to the Olympic Village of Cortina d 'Ampezzo, the queen of the Dolomites. Skiing on the world-famous "Olympia" downhill on the Tofane or on the slopes of the Faloria or the Cristallo, makes every ski lover's heart beat faster. 117 km of slopes are waiting for you, and Cortina is also the venue for the Alpine World Ski Championships 2021.
