The Gsies Valley is part of Dolomiti Nordicski, one of Europe’s largest cross-country skiing networks, offering over 1,300 km of perfectly groomed trails. One pass, endless possibilities: through quiet valleys, wide snowy landscapes, and the breathtaking scenery of the Dolomites.
Right at Fontis Lodge, 42 km of perfectly prepared trails begin. Whether you prefer a relaxed glide or a sporting challenge – here, you’ll find your own rhythm in the snow.

The Antholz Valley is one of the world’s most renowned biathlon destinations. Framed by the Dolomites, it combines top-level international sport with an authentic winter landscape – a place where excitement and nature meet in perfect balance.

As a venue of the 2026 Winter Olympics, Antholz made sports history: the modern Südtirol Arena hosted the biathlon competitions in front of thousands of spectators, firmly establishing the valley as a global icon of winter sports.

Just three kilometres away, there is a small, sunny mountain lift with its own ski school in St. Magdalena. Ideal for skiing for kids, beginners and families. The Gsies Valley is also the best base for ski trips to the Kronplatz or to the 3 Zinnen ski region in the Dolomites, which offers excellent views.

The Gsies Valley, at 1,400 m above sea level, has a generous covering of snow every year. Hike through the peaceful forest on the marked hiking trails and experience the unspoilt atmosphere of nature in all its majesty. Stomping through the magical winter world in snow shoes is a particularly romantic experience. 

Even in the winter, most mountain lodges and mountain huts in the Gsies Valley and the surrounding area are staffed and open. The access routes to the huts are perfect for long winter hikes and for adventurous toboggan descents in the cold season.

Simply romantic. Enjoy travelling through the snowy landscape in a carriage drawn by Haflinger horses under a bright blue sky or the stars. When you are nestled in warm blankets, the cosy journey over meadows and pastures is an unforgettable experience.

The crunch under your skis, the glittering fresh snow, the enchanting winter landscape of the Dolomites... this is what makes these tours so wonderful. The mountains in the Gsies Valley offer outstanding ski tour routes for skiing fans. The region is guaranteed to have snow and be suitable for tours.
