Plose - Brixen Overview

A small town offering a wide range of facilities - including indoor ice rink and numerous bars and restaurants. The skiing takes place in the Plose region above, which includes one of the world's longest black descents (at 9km, the longest slope in the South Tyrol). Top après ski spots include the Igloo at the base of the Plose lifts and there is a megadisco in Brixen. There's a fun park and half pipe on Plose and, with virtually all of the terrain accessed by gondola or chair lifts, it's easy to get around. All the opportunities locally and in the greater area open to skiers are of course there for boarders too, including the possibility of exploring further with the one Dolomiti Superski ticket. Plose Ski School, which is very politically incorrect in not carrying out the obligatory renaming of itself ( as in: Plose Ski and Snowboarding School) none the less offers specialised tuition and board rentals are available in Erwin Stricker's rental shop at the base of the gondola. Those 'boarders who have crossed over from skateboarding will be pleased to discover a rare skateboard-park-in-a-ski-resort in Brixen.
