Ski area Rittner Horn
Families and sun worshippers will like the small but lovely ski area Rittner Horn (1,538 - 2,260 m). It lies on a sun plateau and the 14 km of wide piste are perfectly suitable for beginners and intermediates. The most beautiful view can be enjoyed from the 2,060 m high Schwarzsee Spitze. The many quaint huts with their fantastic sun terraces and friendly landlors round the experience off.
Around Bolzano, you will find 12 ski areas that form part of the "Dolomiti Superski" union, providing for some variety (see ski region) - with an incredible total of 1,200 piste kilometres and 450 lifts.

Rules of conduct on ski pistes in Italy
To use the ski areas, you must have valid liability insurance that covers damage or injury to third parties. This can also be taken out on site for individual days. Skiing while intoxicated (0.5 per mille or higher BAC) is prohibited and is punishable by heavy fines. To reduce the risk of injury, wearing a helmet is compulsory for everyone (regardless of age, on all ski runs, in snow parks and on toboggan runs). Anyone who does not comply with the helmet requirement will be fined or banned from the slopes.
Après ski Rittner Horn
After an active day on the pistes, you can regain your energy in one of the comfy cafés and restaurants in Bolzano. Enjoy a cappuccino in the sun in the "Bozner Lauben", the old town's shopping street and enjoy the hustle and bustle. Several sun terraces and huts at the Rittner Horn invite to do that, filling up quickly in the afternoons. Fans of some classic après ski will find enjoyment in some of the bigger ski resorts in the Dolomites. E.g. the Olympic resort of 1956, Cortina, d'Ampezzo, is known for its large après ski offer - among others you have the Scoiattoli huts in the ski area with fantastic view on the surround peaks. A little more sophisticated, but still just as charming is Madonna di Campiglio, where several bars and cafés invite for après ski in town, where a chat can be had with the ski instructors.
But next to the strolls and the culinary quality, Bolzano also features some cultural leisure activities: there is a series of museum, such as the archaeological or the natural museum and several castles in the surrounding areas. In the Castle Sigmundskron you will find the Messner Mountain Museum.
