tHE TOUR COURSE

We will ascend to the highest point of the tour at 2,200 m from the valley station in Versciaco/Monte Elmo. Take your time and witness the first rays of sun in peace whilst enjoying a coffee and fantastic panoramic views of the surrounding mountains before setting off with the Stiergarten cable car.

Ascend with the Stiergarten cable car to the top of the eponymous mountain where bulls once enjoyed the cool air. Head to the Signaue valley station via the “Drei Zinnen” slope. The Croda Rossa on the other side of Sesto is accessible from here.

Once you have greeted our reindeer herd and the family of giant snowmen, head to the Passo Monte Croce pass where you can ski in the footsteps of Marc Girardelli on the slope named in his honour. From the mountain station, continue on to the Bagni di Valgrande area.

Once there, you have to get on the ski bus SALTO to get to the Ski Area Val Comelico. And back to the mountain with the chairlift Col d'la Tenda, where you can try out wonderful Italian dishes in the Col d'la Tenda hut. Did you already notice that it looks a little different here than at the starting point of this adventure trip? That's because you have now crossed a provincial border: You are no longer in South Tyrol, but in Belluno!

Take the SALTO ski bus towards Signaue to return to South Tyrol. From here, ascend with the “Drei Zinnen” gondola lift up to Stiergarten and proceed to the middle station.

After a short journey with the Stiergarten cable car, ski via the black slope to the valley station of the Monte Elmo panoramic gondola lift in Sesto, which will transport you back to the Elmo summit.

This is the last round and a challenging one at that! Return back to the starting point in Versciaco via the 4.75km long Helmissimo slope.
