The first flat parts are the 1st, 2nd and 3rd km of cross-country skiing and are marked in blue and green, these are ideally recommended for the beginner!
Experienced skiers can enjoy a 5 km stretch, red-marked training-track; homologated for national cross-country races.
For a long cross-country tour (black signs), you can traverse the entire valley in a 10km loop, amid dramatic mountainous backdrops, from the Stevia and Chedul group to the " Pra da Ri " meadow. A peaceful hiking route crosses the middle of the valley. At the entrance, next to the cross-country ski school and ski rental, there is a 50x50m biathlon centre. Local athletes and members of Ski Club Val Gardena and the Carabinieri train their sports groups. By the parking lot there is a small snack bar where you can quench your thirst and satisfy your hunger.

Seiseralm
The wintry snow-covered Alpe di Siusi is a real paradise for cross-country skiers. The seemingly endless expanse of gently undulating, sun-drenched landscape, dotted by small islands of forest and surrounded by bizarre dolomite rock formations is definitely worth exploring on cross-country skis.
