Cross-country skiing at the highest level

The Three Peaks Dolomites region is considered the number 1 cross-country skiing region in Italy - and rightly so: about 400 kilometres of trails lead through valleys, over sunny high plateaus and through the snow-covered UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites. They stretch from Braies to the Val Fiscalina and take you through the Val Pusteria communities of Villabassa, Dobbiaco, San Candido and Sesto. The 6 km circuit of the Prato Piazza at an altitude of 2,000 metres above sea level with guaranteed snow, nestled in the Fanes-Sennes-Braies Nature Park, also offers an incredible panorama. Unspoilt nature and Dolomite peaks are your constant companions here.

In Italy's No. 1 cross-country skiing region, not only the impressive Dolomite panorama awaits you, but also Europe's largest cross-country carousel, the Dolomiti NordicSki. Get into the fabulous 1,300 kilometres of trails and 10 varied and distinctive cross-country skiing areas. The proximity to the Dobbiaco Nordic Arena with FIS trails, night trails and World Cup flair rounds off the Nordic experience perfectly. And thanks to the altitude of over 2,000 metres, the cross-country skiing season lasts until spring.

Nordic Arena Toblach - In the footsteps of the pros

The Nordic Arena Toblach is one of Europe's top cross-country skiing centres and offers ideal training conditions on 120 FIS-certified kilometres of trails. In addition to night trails, hire and a cross-country skiing school, the arena also boasts regular World Cup events. Beginners and professionals alike will find everything they need for a professional cross-country skiing experience here - right in the heart of the Dolomites.
