A Perfect Day’s Skiing

Monte Cavallo guarantees comfort and fun for the whole family. Experienced skiers will appreciate the short queues at the lifts, sunny slopes and fast ski runs.

Tobogganing and Hiking Fun

The ten-kilometre-long, floodlit adventure toboggan run at Monte Cavallo is popular with people of all ages. In fact, it is considered to be the longest floodlit toboggan run in Italy. Hikers, on the other hand, prefer to explore the area along the well-maintained circular hiking trail to the Flaner Jöchl ridge, which is suitable for all the family.
