Ski area Merano 2000
On the sunny side of the Alps, "Merano 2000" offers a compact ski area with 40 km of pistes. The mostly easy to medium-difficulty descents extend from Falzeben (1,680 metres) up to the peak of the Kesselberg at 2,350 metres. The 3.5 km long piste from Piffing to Falzeben is floodlit once a week and guarantees fun in the snow until late in the evening.
Merano 2000 offers children a "Specialised Children's Ski School Südtirol" and a ski kindergarten, where even the youngest children are taught to ski by trained ski instructors at the baby lift. The ski area is also very family-friendly with "Luckis Kinderland", located directly at the top station of the cable car. Here, the little ones can try their hand at three magic carpets and wide, flat pistes or have fun playing and tobogganing in the snow, while parents can relax on the terrace of the Panorama Bistro.
Cosy skiers particularly appreciate the Kesselberg and Rotwand pistes, while experienced skiers and snowboarders can let off steam on the Mittager piste. Freestylers will find a snow park with rails, jumps and tables on the Wallpach piste. The cosy huts scattered throughout the ski area provide excellent South Tyrolean specialities and hearty snacks.
