Get to know the resort
Kronplatz, or Plan de Corones, is a flat-topped massif above the Pusteria valley, with 119 km of immaculately groomed piste dropping in every direction from its summit. It is regularly voted the best family ski area in Italy, with wide cruising runs, modern fast lifts and three Messner Mountain Museums plus a steep Lumen photography gallery up top. It is on the Dolomiti Superski pass, so a single ticket also reaches the Sella Ronda valleys and beyond.
Good to know
- The terrain is well balanced: 0 green, 50 blue, 50 red and 19 black runs, which suits a mixed group skiing together at different levels.
- The base sits at 950 m and the top reaches 2275 m, a profile that holds snow well across a normal winter (score 80/100).
- With 119 km of piste on 32 lifts, it is a mid-size area, easy to get to know in a long weekend.
- The lifts typically turn for about 18 weeks a season, planning around late January to late February tends to land the most reliable cover.
