Ski vacations Riscone - winter idyll at Plan de Corones!

Riscone

Riscone (German: "Reischach") is situated at 956 m altitude on a sunny, high-lying plateau at the foot of Plan de Corones. The resort owes its name to the legendary Rischon Mountain. With its 1,300 inhabitants, the resort doesn't only offer a beautiful panorama over the surrounding mountain area, but is also the ideal place to do winter sports.

Modern lift systems that take you up to 2,275 m in the ski area Plan de Corones start directly on the edge of the resort. The very well prepared pistes and beautiful views make this resort one of the loveliest in the Dolomites. Boarders, carvers and leisurely skiers are offered a first-class experience! Cross-country fans can look forward to approx. 11 km of trails. Ice skating, tobogganing, curling or in the spa paradise "Cron4" offer a large programme of leisure activities away from the slopes.

Plan de Corones

At the foot of the Plan de Corones (2,275 m), in the centre of the picturesque Val Pusteria, are 14 diverse and attractive South Tyrolean villages. Modern gondolas start from various stations and speed up to the peak, from which imposing 360-degree views unfold. Diverse sporting events take place here on a regular basis, e.g. the Val Pusteria ski marathons including the Valle di Casies run, the biggest sporting event in South Tyrol. 120 kilometres of piste, approx. 32 modern lifts, a half-pipe, as well as ample recreational and sporting opportunities and lively après ski ensure a good deal off piste! This ski area is also great for families, thanks to numerous facilities such as the "Croniworld".
