Your vacation at Plan De Corones in Italy

The Dolomites region of Kronplatz in South Tyrol is a popular destination for nature lovers, adventurers, and those seeking relaxation alike. The area is known for its breathtaking scenery, characterized by majestic mountains, green valleys, and picturesque villages.

The Puster Valley is a true paradise for hikers and cyclists, with countless trails and paths winding through stunning landscapes. Its side valleys, such as the Antholz Valley, are particularly charming and offer a wide range of activities including hiking, cycling, and skiing.

Kronplatz is the most famous mountain in the region, providing perfect conditions for skiers and snowboarders in winter. In summer, visitors can take the cable car to the summit and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
