Glittering hills and sugar-coated coniferous forests as far as the eye can see, with little mountain huts and isolated houses in between. And, in the background, the giant peaks all capped in white…
This is no picture book – it is the Seiser Alm in winter. Nor is it as quiet as it seems – at least not everywhere. Listen beyond the wide silence and lonely crunching of snow under your feet and you will hear the swish of skis, the laughter of cheerful guests at the huts, or the shouts of children on the toboggan runs! The silent Alpine pastures have depth: the Seiser Alm, especially, has two sides – literally. While the meadows and forests of the plateau are as if made for winter walkers, snowshoe enthusiasts and cross-country skiers, the slopes of the Seiser Alm-Gröden Valley ski area are a paradise for winter sports fans of all degrees of skill. An all just a cable car ride from the Hotel Waldrast Dolomiti!
