The new Sexten Dolomites/Dolomiti di Sesto skiing carousel is set in the sea of peaks that are the “Monti pallidi” (“pale mountains”), recently declared a UNESCO natural World Heritage site. 77 fantastic kilometres of pistes and 31 modern cable cars and lifts make it possible to experience this unique landscape of peaks.
Giro delle Cime, the Sexten Dolomites tour
This one-day tour for passionate skiers leads across five mountains to the absolute highlights of this winter paradise. The heart of the tour is formed by the Monte Baranci/Haunold, Monte Elmo/Helm and Croda Rossa/Rotwand mountains with their link to the ski area Val Comelico, south-east of the Passo di Monte Croce/Kreuzberg mountain pass, and the cable cars and lifts of Dobbiaco/Toblach and Braies/Prags in the west. With one ski pass (Dolomiti di Sesto or Dolomiti Superski) you can reach more than 12 highlight zones, from the legendary world of the giant Baranci, to the giant snowmen of Croda Rossa and the only freely roaming herd of reindeer in Italy. Anyone wishing to experience the Dolomite peaks from their most beautiful side should visit the highest vantage point on Monte Elmo with its view over the world’s largest natural sundial.
