SMALL GROUP WINTER TOUR

Cross-country skiing offers a wonderful way to explore the dramatic limestone peaks of the Dolomites. With a network of pre-cut tracks (known as loipes) across diverse terrains, there’s a route for every skill level. Unlike downhill skiing, cross-country skiing is more about endurance and technique than speed, providing a great aerobic workout. With the proper technique, cross-country skis allow you to move effortlessly across flat surfaces, downhill, and even uphill.

Dobbiaco, located at 3,940ft (1,200m) in the heart of this region, is one of our most popular destinations, offering weeks for beginners through to advanced skiers. Our accommodation is a charming hotel run by the Tschurtschenthaler family, known for their warm hospitality and comfortable atmosphere, making it an ideal retreat after an active day on the slopes.
