How to reach the Snowpark and Nightpark

The ‘Obereggen Snowpark’ is part of Italy’s best and biggest snow parks for over 20 years now and offers lots of fun to both newbies and pros.

Italy only has a few halfpipes but one of them makes part of the Obereggen Snowpark. The park is located at the Pampeago slope which you can reach with the Obereggen ski lifts. Snow groomers and professionals run maintenance procedures on a day-to-day basis so that you can enjoy an amazing experience while having a very high saftey and quality standard.
Once you had enough fun in the Snowpark you can relax to some good sound in the clubhouse with chill area.

Learn new tricks during the day and practise them on the Jibline in the evening. The Nightpark along Carezza slope is a whole 1.780 metres long. By day and by night: the obstacles are there to be overcome.

How to reach the giant snowmen

Gigantic, friendly, and as white as snow, our giant snowmen will greet you with a smile at the mountain station of the Croda Rossa cable car. Remember, building a snowman is not just for kids!

Year after year, after the first snow has fallen, visitors can observe our crew at the Croda Rossa as they roll the first big balls of snow. Piece by piece, these snowballs are stacked upon one another and are adorned with a hat, scarf and a carrot nose.
Located right at the Croda Rossa mountain station, these smiling, friendly, eight-metre-high snow sculptures look forward to welcoming you. Funnily enough, the family of snow men appear almost tiny against the backdrop of the impressive peaks of the Dolomites. Their true dimensions only become truly apparent once you ski past.

How to reach this experience

Italy’s only reindeer herd are the famous, local stars of the vast preserve at the Croda Rossa. Feeling homey in the wild nature of the 3 Zinnen in the Dolomites, the shaggy animals provide amusing and fascinating encounters, even on the ski slopes sometimes.

Reindeer feedings, an unforgettable winter highlight for all ages, take place at the mountain station of the Croda Rossa Gondola Lift. Help us feed the smallest reindeer herd in the Alps during a daily feeding session. The animals are served a healthy portion of Icelandic moss followed by special “reindeer candy” (mixed grains) for dessert. This is a fairytale experience in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites for the entire family and features up-close encounters with these likeable antlered characters

How to reach the experience

Lots of adrenaline and exciting insights into the daily work at cable car and lift stations is offered to experienced slope athletes choosing the “Free Fall Ride” in the ski resort 3 Zinnen Dolomites. Known as one of the steepest descents in the Alps, the deep black “Holzriese” slope is a big challenge – not only for skiers but also for the staff members working at cable cars and lifts, who are in charge of excellent snow conditions and perfect slope grooming.

What exactly does this challenge entail? Courageous individuals can find out as they join a snow-cat driver during an evening drive in the cockpit of a snow groomer. Being a passenger in a vehicle responsible for grooming the steepest slope in Italy groomed on a daily basis is nearly as exhilarating as skiing the slope itself! At this gradient (72%), “even the snow groomers have to wear mountaineering crampons” as the machines rely on winches to secure them in the most treacherous areas.

It’s an unforgettable experience for anyone who wants to have a closer look to the technical difficulties of operating a machine with precision in extreme circumstances.
