The Witches-tour Alpe di Siusi

At the beginning of the 1600s Castle Prösels was the setting for various witches' trials. The supernatural events were said to take place on the nearby Alpe di Siusi. Compatsch is the point to set off from on the climb on the Alpe di Siusi witches' tour with 7 stations: The funpark, witches' humpback run, a witches' chimney as a fine obstacle tunnel made out of snow and witches' park with life sized figures - and naturally the famous witches' 'benches' are there too on show, where the Schlern witches worked up their brew with the clouds.

Tuesday:

Seceda, in the Val Gardena

Starting in Ortisei you pass from the Seceda high plateau by S. Cristina on to Mount de Seura and - after a thrilling run - to Ciampinoi, Plan de Gralba and Piz Seteur in the fabulous skiing arena between the Sella massif and Sasso Lungo. The way to Selva Gardena leads over the giant slalom run. Dantercepies is the next objective which means the 'Cir', so named after the mountain. On the route lies the run which has a name that is music to the ears of skiing enthusiasts: the Saslong. In the afternoon sunshine our tour leads on to Col Raiser and ends with a 9 kilometre romantic run to Ortisei.

Wednesday

The First World War ski-tour / Alleghe-Civetta

The freedom tour
The First World War is the theme of this tour and in spite of the serious subject there is an optimistic tone. In fact, those who are familiar with the grandiose alpine landscape of the Dolomites will tell you the meaning of the word freedom. Austrian mountain troops and the German Alpine corps along with the Italian 'Alpini' were present here from May 1915 until November 1917, engaged in a bitter struggle for survival. At the epicentre of the fighting, Col di Lana, the tour passes under the cliff walls of those famed peaks like Civetta, Monte Pelmo, Tofana, Lagazuoi, Conturines, Settsass, Sassongher, Sella and Marmolada. We're talking about a day out on those breathtakingly beautiful slopes for all the family. The run from Lagazuoi to Armentarola and the Punta Rocca run (over the Marmolada glacier towards Malga Ciapela) are particularly spectacular. In fact the Civetta skiing resort is a frequent and superlative starting point.

Thursday:

Marmolada 3.342 m.

From Malga Ciapela there are cable cars which lead right to the peak. We start off in Arabba, then the tour moves on to Porta Vescovo, which is formed just like a bishop's cap. This point offers a breathtaking view of the majestic Marmolada glacier. To warm ourselves up the very fast 'Ornella' run leads us towards Pescoi. Over the ridge of the Passo Padon the tour follows on to the Passo Fedaia and from there in three stages to Punta Rocca covering more than 1,300 metres in height, reaching at 3,269 metres the highest point in the whole of the Dolomiti Superski resort area, just a few metres under the Marmolada summit.

Friday:

Sella Ronda  - 4 passes

The skitour of the four Dolomite Passes around the Sella massif, one of the most spectacular of the world. The tour can be done easily in one day, without removing your skis and passing through the four Ladin valleys: Val Gardena, Alta Badia, Val di Fassa and Arabba. It can be done clockwise or anticlockwise, starting from any of the four valleys. Clockwise the colour of the signposting is orange, anticlockwise it is green. It covers a total distance of 40 km, 26 of which are ski slopes. The Sellaronda tour can be done by skiers of intermediate level.
