Above the horizon, the sun plays “peek-a-boo” behind a thin veil of clouds. Long shadows stretch out over the snow-covered meadows. The roof of the path-side shrine carries a thick white cover. Little caps of snow on the fence entice tiny hands: they are quickly spun into a snowball. When sledding, there’s always room for joie de vivre and the joy of being in motion. With the 7 km (4.5 mile) descent from the Malga Brunst-Brunst Alm back to Valdaora-Olang, there’s no way to avoid hearing the fun! Many world cup races are held on the natural sled run. And the fact that the Niedermair brothers also sledded here will especially inspire a good many fans of sledding sports.
