Ski area Plan de Corones

The ski area around Plan de Corones/Kronplatz (2,275 m), South Tyrol's No. 1 ski mountain, has more to offer you with the "Plan de Corones/Kronplatz" lift pass than just a little fun on the slopes. Thanks to numerous snow-making facilities, snow is guaranteed from December to April, 121 km of pistes and 31 state-of-the-art lifts between 973 and 2,275 metres above sea level ensure unforgettable skiing fun for young and old.

The Korer lift with its 8-person gondola is particularly suitable for beginners, children and families. A 100 metre wide piste with a 160 metre difference in altitude awaits here. Plan de Corones is considered a very family-friendly ski area with lots on offer for children. At the peak of Kronplatz, for example, there is the "Croniworld", where parents can watch their children's progress and enjoy a wonderful 360-degree panorama at the same time.

Experienced alpinists can put their skills to the test on the steep sections of the two descents to the valley, "Sylvester" and "Herrnegg". Snowboarders can let off steam on the half-pipe. No other ski area is as versatile and varied as Plan de Corones! The area is also known as the venue for various sporting events such as the Snowboard World Cup.

In order to guarantee the perfect skiing experience, the ski area is regularly upgraded: The ever-popular sun lift has been replaced, completely refurbished and equipped with many new features such as heated seats and protective bonnets. Free Wi-Fi is available in the Miara cabins and the snowmaking systems have been improved. In the 19/20 season, the non-detachable Rara chair lift was replaced by the modern "Skitrans Bronta". Since its construction, it has held the title of the shortest 12-seater gondola lift in the world and connects the valley stations of the "Miara" and "Pedagá" gondolas.

For an even greater choice of pistes, you can book an upgrade to the "Dolomiti Superski" lift pass and choose between 1,200 kilometres of piste, 450 lift systems and 24 snow parks! In the "Plan de Corones" ski area, you have access to free Wi-Fi hotspots at many ski pass sales points. If you choose the "Dolomiti Superski" lift pass upgrade, there are also many other hotspots available at cable car stations and restaurants in the various ski areas.
