Nature Experiences in Winter

In winter, nature transforms into a quiet world of snow and light, creating a beautiful setting for skiing beneath the Dolomite peaks and for gentle experiences in harmony with the season. The clear mountain air brings a sense of renewal, while the peaceful atmosphere invites families to slow down and enjoy warm moments together in our living spaces. Snow-covered landscapes, playful discoveries in the snow, encounters with our animals, evenings by the fire, warm water experiences, and seasonal cuisine come together to create a winter experience rooted in nature and connection. With the ski lift and ski school directly at the resort, families can enjoy their winter days in their own rhythm. Our shuttle provides access to the Plose ski area for shared days on the slopes, while gentle winter walks across the Lüsen alpine pastures reveal the quiet beauty of the Dolomites in their winter form.
