Holiday apartment in San Pellegrino: winter, peaks and culture

San Pellegrino offers several ways to enjoy a mountain holiday: winter sports, alpine trails, as well as the surrounding landscape and regional culture. Those choosing a holiday apartment in San Pellegrino can plan their stay around active days in the mountains, trail experiences or historical discoveries. For families with different interests, this makes it possible to create varied focuses for days spent together.

Winter experiences around San Pellegrino

The Centro Fondo Alochet at Passo San Pellegrino offers 18 kilometres of cross-country ski trails in four loops of varying difficulty. They are located at an altitude of between 1,900 and 2,500 metres. The different loops give cross-country skiers a clear choice for winter days.

The Centro Fondo Alochet can be reached from Moena and from the centre of Passo San Pellegrino by ski bus.

Another winter experience is La VolatA, a black run in the San Pellegrino ski area. It starts at Col Margherita at an altitude of 2,510 metres, ends at Passo San Pellegrino at 1,874 metres and is approximately 2,350 metres long. Its vertical drop is 636 metres.

Alpine trails, peaks and Fuciade

For alpine trails, the route from the mountain station of the Costabella chairlift leads across alpine meadows to the historic Rifugio Passo delle Selle mountain hut (Bergvagabunden Hütte).

The peaks of Cima di Costabella, Lastei Grande, Punta dell'Uomo and Lastei Piccolo are located in the immediate surroundings of San Pellegrino. They broaden the view of the mountain landscape with four specific summit destinations.

A gravel road leads to the Fuciade basin through open stands of mountain pines and larches, as well as across meadows and pastures. Mountain huts and old hay barns characterise the basin. In winter, the gravel-road section on the route from Passo San Pellegrino to the Fuciade basin can be covered by horse-drawn carriage. The combination of forest, pastures and traditionally styled buildings gives this route its own distinctive landscape character.

Pass history and culture in the surrounding area

Since the Middle Ages, Passo San Pellegrino served as a route connecting the north with the port of Venice and was used by merchants, pilgrims and soldiers. The former hospice at Passo San Pellegrino remains a meeting place for cultural exhibitions.

The wider regional surroundings of San Pellegrino are home to Latemar Art, a museum; Castel Salego, a castle; Castelveccio, a ruin; and Chiesa parrocchiale, a church. Cultural interest therefore ranges from art and fortified history to sacred architecture.

When choosing your holiday apartment in San Pellegrino, you can weigh these focuses against one another: cross-country skiing and downhill runs represent winter days, peaks and alpine trails offer landscape experiences, while pass history, exhibitions and regional buildings enable cultural discoveries. This allows you to choose your accommodation according to your preferred holiday theme and combine sporting, scenic and cultural days.
