A cold breath of Pustertal wind meets your face as the transfer climbs toward the broad shoulder of Plan de Corones. By midmorning the ridgeline opens: hard-packed groomers, wide cruisers and steep chutes cut into limestone scarps, and the summit—around 2,275 m—sits above the valley like a promise. A local guide gauges your level and chooses the runs, moving you through the mountain’s varied terrain so you spend time skiing, not searching.

Know your pickup
