Solda (Sulden) Ski Area

Skiing is something that is best learned sooner rather than later. So even pint-sized skiers can practise their carving under the watchful eye of the experienced caregivers of the ski kindergarten at Solda Ski School. A member of the Specialised Children's Ski Schools of South Tyrol, Yeti Club has been awarded the Gold Seal of Approval by the Südtiroler Skischulen (South Tyrolean Ski Schools) association. Criteria for the designation include up-to-date ski lessons, a specially purposed ski kindergarten with playground in the snow, modern lifts, and special learning materials. The mascot Yeti accompanies the children in all of their snow activities, leading them through their day and providing assistance.

Information:
Daily lessons Mon − Fri from 10:00 a.m. to 12:50 p.m. All those hungry little tummies are also well provided for: a morning snack, lunch, fruit, and drinks are served.

Ploughing through virgin snow or a summit descent through deep snow: these pleasures are the be all and end all for freeriders, backcountry skiers, and snowboarders. At the glacial Solda Ski Area, freeriding enthusiasts will find challenging off-piste runs that are perfectly suited to them. All of the off-piste runs are accessible via the lifts in Solda; short additional ascents are required in between. Most of the free-terrain options are advanced runs. A highlight for the freeriding scene is the deep-snow run leading all the way from Punta Beltovo (Schöntaufspitze) Peak at an elevation of 3,250 metres to the valley station at 1,900 metres.

The groomed runs of the glacial ski area also have plenty to offer. Among the best known are the panoramic Gran Zebru, the ungroomed Hochleiten downhill run, and the challengingRosim slope.
