Monte Cavallo Ski Area, near Vipiteno (Sterzing), offers winter fun for the whole
family, without long queues, and the
longest illuminated sledding trail in Italy. From the moment of arrival on Vipiteno’s Sun Terrace, visitors enjoy
spectacular panoramic views that reach all the way to the Dolomites.
The expansive Monte Cavallo Ski Area is located just five minutes on foot from the centre of Vipiteno, which was a trading town in the Middle Ages. The valley station of the cable car is reachable in just a few minutes from a
free parking area near the pedestrian zone. Monte Cavallo Ski Area has
20 km of perfectly groomed ski slopes and a highly regarded
ski school, with nursery slopes. The ski area thus provides safety, comfort and fun for the whole family. The
10-km floodlit sledding trail is very popular with people of all ages: in 2011, international
ADAC tests singled it out as the best sledding trail in German-speaking Europe.
New from 2018
Starting with the winter season 2018 guests can enjoy two new attractions on the recreational mountain Rosskopf! After almost 30 years the
new modern Telemix with its six- and eight-seater cabins will replace the former 3-seater panorama chairlift from the mountain station up to the mountaintop.
With a state of the art equipment, this will not only improve the transportation performance, but it will also create a unforgettable new mountain experience. However the new gondola will experience some competition slopewise, in fact the
new valley descent will invite to the daily last, thrilling snow experience before arriving almost into town.
