The ideal starting point for ski fun is in Olang.
In winter, Kronplatz naturally takes center stage, and a valley station can be found directly in Olang. The ski bus, which runs every 20 minutes through the villages in the valley, takes you directly to the lifts. The cable car takes you up to 2,275 meters to a panoramic view that truly lives up to the name Kronplatz. From the summit plateau, 121 kilometers of slopes fan out into the valley.
Besides skiing, the village also offers a 7 km long toboggan run. Additionally, just a 15-minute drive from Olang is Antholz, the cross-country skiing and biathlon hotspot.
Action awaits! For families with children, there is the Kids Area Panorama, where little adventurers can have their first experiences in the snow.
With the SÜDTIROL GUEST PASS all the public transport in South Tyrol is included (public buses, city buses, regional trains, ski buses). At your arrival you will receive the GUEST PASS.
Exempt from the SÜDTIROL GUEST PASS is: the use of long-distance trains (Intercity, Eurocity, Euronight, Eurostar), the transportation of bicycles, dogs and other pets (needs an appropriate ticket)
