Cross-country Skiing

The wide range of services offered by our Ski School also includes cross-country skiing.

With our specialised instructors you can learn both classic and skating techniques, from the basic to the most advanced level, with lessons dedicated to all ages.

It is very satisfying for us to see adults and children alike become passionate about this wonderful discipline, which is why we decided to include it in our offer.

Lessons take place on the Palafavera Cross-Country and Biathlon Center in Val di Zoldo, which is suitable for both beginners and experts.

2024-25 UPDATE: BIATHLON LESSONS! Starting with the 2024-25 winter season, our cross-country skiing offer will also include Biathlon. One of the most impressive disciplines in the world of skiing, whose roots date back to the earliest forms of archaic skiing. Biathlon is a combination of cross-country skiing and rifle shooting. Trust our instructor Flavia who will guide you step by step on your journey to discover this exciting discipline.
