More than just skiing

Snowboard enthusiasts will find many pistes at Plan de Corones dedicated to acrobatics and high speed in complete safety. For those of you wishing to try out this adrenaline-charged sport for the first time, we recommend one of the many equipment hire and service facilities, as well as one of our highly trained instructors. Fun, colour and the biting wind in your face will make up the memorable moments of your holidays in San Vigilio.

In the past snowshoes were the only safe way of getting about in the winter or for hunting in the woods without the risk of getting stuck in the snow. Tourism and the growing interest in mountain sports, including hiking, mountaineering and skiing, have to a certain extent brought this equipment back to light. Today snowshoes are used by many hikers to tackle snow-covered trails. During your stay, try for yourself the thrill of walking in these modern devices with an old-time air.

The passion for the mountain is for us a way of life. That's why we recommend that at least once during their winter holidays all our guest try the magical emotion offered by ski touring for fully experiencing nature. Taking part in this superb sport will give you incredible sensations during both the climb towards the summit and the long descent along snow-covered ridges. Organised groups are always available at the ski schools where with the guidance of expert and competent instructors you will be able to appreciate the deep philosophy behind this ancient discipline.
