Vacation at Plan de Corones

13 localities make up the Dolomites region Plan de Corones in South Tyrol's white valley, the Puster Valley: 13 localities from Terenten to St. Vigil to Antholz, Welsberg and the Gsies Valley, which form an exceptionally attractive holiday region that impresses with unspoiled quality and genuine hospitality. The centerpiece is naturally the 2,275m high local mountain of Bruneck, the Kronplatz (Plan de Corones). Since the construction of the first cable car in the 1960s, one of the largest and most attractive ski areas in the Alps has developed here. Even if the widely visible and sometimes referred to as bald Kronplatz may not be the prettiest mountain in the Alps, it is definitely an ideal ski mountain. There are currently over 100 km of varied slopes, 17 cabins and 14 chairlifts ensure smooth ascent. As far as comfort and modernity of the lift facilities are concerned, the local mountain is always up to date. It is also important for skiing pleasure that the Plan de Corones / Kronplatz is considered snow-sure. However, if the weather god does not favor the skiers, over 200 snow cannons ensure that optimal conditions for unclouded piste fun prevail.

There is now a direct bus connection to the Alta Badia ski area, which adds additional attractiveness. But a direct connection to the railway is also under construction. The new Ried lift system, including a 7 km long ski slope, is expected to be completed in the winter season 2010/2011. This slope will then lead directly to the new station in Percha. Through this connection to the railway, it will be possible to do without a car or ski bus for the journey to the ski area and instead use the train. This way, every single ski guest can make a meaningful and important contribution to environmental protection.

But the local mountain is also a fantastic holiday destination in summer. Of course, hiking and mountain sports are the focus. Whether on the Plan de Corones / Kronplatz itself or in the three surrounding nature parks Rieserfernergruppe, Fanes-Sennes-Prags and Sextener Dolomites, the possibilities range from leisurely hiking to extreme mountaineering and climbing are endless.

At the foot of the Plan de Corones / Kronplatz is the Sportpark Reischach, a multifunctional sports center that has been carefully integrated into the magnificent landscape and is used as a training camp by top clubs of the Italian Football League every year. Reischach also has a beautiful golf course. This 9-hole course, par 34 with 2,803 m, was built as the first part of a future 18-hole course. Many other active and trendy sports, such as mountain biking, paragliding, horseback riding, tennis or rafting, can also be practiced here. In addition, the Dolomites region is also ancient cultural land. The range of cultural events, historical sights, and museums is large and rich. So there are always a large number of alternatives to the outdoor program, so that boredom does not arise at all.

There is a special offer for families: children up to 6 years of age travel for free, for passengers from 6 to 16 years the card costs half.
