Ski area Rittner Horn
With the "Rittner Horn" lift pass, you can ski on 13 kilometres of pistes on Ritten's local mountain, the sun-kissed family mountain on the high plateau. The pistes are located at snow-sure altitudes of 1,538 m to 2,260 m and offer a magnificent panorama of the Dolomites and gentle, wide runs for pleasure skiers, families and sun worshippers. The modern 8-seater gondola lift takes you from the village of Pemmern up to the Schwarzseespitze at 2,070 m, then a drag lift takes you to the Rittner Horn. 90% of the pistes can be artificially snowed with a total of 10 snow cannons.
At the middle station of the cable car there is a versatile children's park with a magic carpet and more. The approx. 3 km long toboggan run, which leads to the valley station, also starts here. The many rustic mountain huts boast wonderful sun terraces and friendly innkeepers.
At the top of the Rittner Horn there is also a high-altitude trail for cross-country skiers and a premium hiking trail around the Rittner Horn. There is also a marvellous snowkite zone where the wind sometimes whistles over the mountain ridge! There is a descent for every taste and ability level in this ski area.
