SKITOUR GARDENA 1970
www.valgardena.it
You can start this exhilarating skiing tour either from S. Cristina or from
Ortisei. If you choose Ortisei, your tour begins with the 6 km-long downhill
“Südtirol Gardenissima” piste, which runs from the Seceda high plateau
down to Col Raiser.
An underground funicular railway connects the ski area Sochers/Ciampinoi
with Col Raiser/Seceda, thus making the climb much easier. If you
choose to start from S. Cristina, you ascend to Monte Sëura, and on to
Ciampinoi, Plan de Gralba and Piz Setëur, in the ski arena between the
Sella Massif and Sassolungo. Afterwards, you can enjoy the run down
to Selva Gardena on the piste where Karl Schranz won the giant slalom
World Championship in 1970. The tour continues with “Cir”, the piste
of the women’s downhill World Championship race, and with the “Saslong”
downhill slope, which saw the success of Swiss skier Bernhard
Russi in 1970. The tour ends back in Col Raiser, on the pleasant 9 km
downhill run to Ortisei.
