Giora’s tip

3 Zinnen is Giora’s recommendation for families seeking relaxed skiing with exceptional scenery. The Tre Cime as your backdrop, authentic Tyrolean villages, train access and prices more moderate than the central areas of Dolomiti Superski. Combine with a trip to Kronplatz (~30 mins by train).
