Winter experience: Cross country skiing in Alta Pusteria
From the Berghotel to the Lake of Dobbiaco – but not by car: you have the possibility to arrive by cross country skiing to this destination, instead of taking the car. More than 200 km of cross country slopes are available in Hochpustertal / Alta Pusteria and offer a big variety of various slopes in this snowy area.
Guests, who are passing their winter holidays in Sesto / Sexten, have to enjoy one day on the classic slopes in the beautiful Fischleinvalley or on the three slopes in altitude: Malga Nemes, Misurina, Prato Piazza. We are sure, that it will be a winter experience for everybody!

Sesto is a real dream for every skier, situated in the heart of the Dolomites, UNESCO natural World Heritage site. And the big new of this winter season: 77 km of pistes can be used with only one skipass.
This because the ski area Comelico is now connected with the Ski-Carosello Sexnter Dolomiten – Alta Pusteria. And very great too: directly from the Berghotel you arrive at the ski slopes of the Monte Elmo, without using your car!
