Ski vacations Vipiteno - charming piste fun!

Vipiteno

The lively resort of Vipiteno (German: "Sterzing") is situated at 948 m in the upper Eisack Valley in the centre of the southern Wipp Valley. With its gazebos and gables, this picturesque community's historical old town contributes to the medieval town's special flair. Only a few years ago has the town in the centre of the Southern Wipp Valley been crowned the prettiest small town of Italy. In Vipiteno, the medieval aura is joint with modern charm. Its landmark, the 46 m high "Zwölfer" Tower is always in sight when strolling along the lovely, historical pedestrian area with its shops, various cafés and traditional guest houses.

But Vipiteno doesn't only attract with some good shopping: the local mountain "Rosskopf" is also known as "leisure mountain" as it offers a variety of possibilities for winter sports enthusiasts to let off steam - be it on the pistes, on the nearly 10 km long toboggan or on one of the winter hiking routes.

Wipptal

The Wipp Valley stretches from Innsbruck to Franzenfeste and is a combination of eleven communities with completely different characteristics. Picturesque villages with customs and rustic essence, as well as secluded mountain farms and natural landscapes or small cities with modern charm await guests. The Wipptal also offers many opportunities for ski tours. The Brenner motorway offers good travel connections to Wipp Valley. Experience magnificent types of landscape: tremendous rock walls, an ice armoured summit, and as always a fascinating glacier.
