During the
summer, Tarvisio provides many hiking
and walking trails for exploring the
surrounding areas. Other sports are available
too, such as horse riding, skating (Pontebba),
fishing, as well as newer additions such
as dog sledding, paragliding at Coccau
Predil, mountain biking, and Nordic walking.
And golfing naturally, at the magnificent
18-hole course, all surrounded by forests
and imposing mountain peaks between Italy,
Austria, and Slovenia. Cyclists will
enjoy the new bike path connecting the
border to the Val Bruna.
Winter brings not only stupendous views
but also the most prestigious skiing
area, which Duke Amedeo D’Aosta
discovered and loved. Fully 140 kilometres
of downhill runs await you here, and
over 60 of cross-country trails, plus
ski lifts, and efficient, modern snowmaking
machines.
Nighttime skiing adds a fascinating dimension
here: a perfectly-designed run, with
beautiful curves, sudden changes in grade,
gently-sloping plateaus for gathering
speed offer tremendous excitement, the
effects heightened by efficient outdoor
lighting for nighttime skiing after sunset
almost to midnight.
