South Tyrol's Glacier Ski Resort and Alpine Adventure Destination
Located in the upper Val Senales, the Alpin Arena Senales is one of South Tyrol's most spectacular mountain destinations. Stretching from 2,011 to 3,212 metres above sea level, it offers breathtaking glacier scenery, unforgettable panoramic views and outdoor experiences throughout the year.
Internationally renowned as a glacier ski resort, Alpin Arena Senales boasts an exceptionally long ski season thanks to its high altitude and reliable snow conditions. From autumn until late spring, perfectly groomed slopes, modern lift facilities and a wide variety of runs provide ideal conditions for beginners, families and experienced skiers alike. Every year, numerous national ski teams from around the world choose Alpin Arena Senales as their training venue because of its outstanding snow reliability and excellent infrastructure.
In addition to alpine skiing, winter visitors can enjoy ski touring, snowshoe hiking, winter walking trails and one of the highest cross-country skiing trails in Europe.
During the summer months, Alpin Arena Senales becomes a paradise for hikers and mountaineers. From scenic panoramic walks to demanding alpine tours and via ferratas, the surrounding Ötztal Alps offer unforgettable experiences for every level.
One of the highlights is the Iceman Ötzi Peak at 3,251 metres. Just a few minutes' walk from the top station of the glacier cable car, the viewing platform offers spectacular 360-degree views across the surrounding peaks and towards the site where Ötzi the Iceman was discovered.
