Since December 2014 the two ski resorts of Plan de Corones and Three Peaks Dolomites are offering skiers a new dimension. It means „winter without borders“ in the Val Pusteria, when you are able to travel easily by train from one ski resort to the other. This is made possible by the construction of a new station right next to the Versciaco - Monte Elmo valley station. You can enjoy the convenience of travel on the Ski-Pustertal-Express from the Ried/Plan de Corones valley station to the Monte Elmo valley station at the entrance to the Three Peaks Dolomites, and vice versa. So no bother taking off your ski boots and no tiresome car journey. 200 km of ski slopes connected by train!
