At the foot of Seiser Alm — a Dolomite plateau and Europe’s largest high-altitude Alpine meadow — is where you’ll find the four-star campsite of the same name. The Schlern, the landmark of South Tyrol, is so close, you could practically reach out and touch it from here.

The same applies to the Dolomiti-Superski ski resorts: It’s only three minutes away by shuttle bus! Downhill skiing is popular at Seiser Alm, but cross-country skiers and winter hikers are in the right place on this vast plateau, too. Freestyler fanatics can go wild at King Laurin Snow Park. If you like things a bit more relaxed and cosy, head out on a romantic horse-drawn sleigh ride through the snowy landscape, or get out your ice skates and glide around the frozen lake, Völser Weiher.
