A special winter holiday – at the hotel on the slope at Mt Kronplatz
Step outside your hotel door in the morning. The cool, crisp air smells of fresh snow. You take a deep breath and let your gaze wander over the rugged, frosted peaks of the Fanes-Senes-Braies/Fanes-Sennes-Prags Nature Park. And now? Just a few minutes’ walk to the San Vigilio valley station of the Mt Plan de Corones/Kronplatz lifts. The snow-covered spruce forests of the nature park are just a few hundred metres away, offering diverse cross-country trails and winter hiking paths. Add to that, thrilling snowshoe and ski touring routes that lead you from the foothills of Dolomite giants into serene, freedom-filled heights.

After a day of delightful skiing, store your skis and unwind with energising laps in the Sky Pool at your hotel directly at the slopes of Mt Plan de Corones/Kronplatz. Where else can you plan tomorrow’s descent of the famous World Cup slope, Erta, while relaxing in a rooftop pool?


Winter and snowshoe hiking in the Fanes wilderness
Morning turns are made on the Mt Plan de Corones/Kronplatz slopes, while afternoons are for peaceful hikes in the Fanes-Senes-Braies/Fanes-Sennes-Prags Nature Park. Start directly from your hotel on the slope at Mt Plan de Corones/Kronplatz. With each step, immerse yourself in the pristine, snow-covered landscape. Hear the crunch of snow underfoot, watch dewdrops fall from branches, and feel the sun’s warmth on your face. Follow the dappled spruce forests to the tranquil valley end at Pederü. From there, ascend into the magical and idyllic Fanes plateau, encircled by the mighty Dolomite peaks. Feeling peckish after your hike? Authentic Alpine huts await, offering hearty meals and a cosy place to rest.


Across the valley: cross-country skiing in the nature park
Skating fun:
ice skating and hockey
Feel at home on the ice? Lace up your skates and glide away at the ice rink in Reischach, the skating area in San Vigilio, or the Intercable Arena in Bruneck – all close to Al Plan Hotel. Fun fact: At the Intercable Arena, you can also catch thrilling hockey matches, or try your hand at curling or Bavarian-style ice stock sport.


Varied winter fun around your ski hotel at Kronplatz
At sunrise, climb a peak on touring skis. Before setting out, start with a steaming cup of tea from your hotel on the slope at Mt Plan de Corones/Kronplatz. Watch as the sun awakens the landscape with blazes of red and orange. Bask in the serene stillness. And then dig into a hearty Alpine breakfast with fresh bread, tangy cheese, and a South Tyrolean “Kaminwurz” sausage. Prefer a faster descent? Try the groomed toboggan runs at Mt Plan de Corones/Kronplatz or the natural sledging trails from Fanes hut and Sennes hut down into the valley.
