Even more ways to enjoy winter

Sometimes it’s the little moments that stay with you long after a holiday is over. A cosy afternoon in the snow, an evening in the city or simply a few peaceful hours away from the everyday bustle are just as much part of a winter stay at the Gasthof zur Sonne as days on the Dolomite slopes.
Go tobogganing in Obereggen or Carezza for a fun-filled ride down the mountain, while the ice rinks in Nova Ponente and Collepietra are perfect for winter fun with family or friends. And when the lights come on in Bolzano and the streets are decorated for the festive season, it’s well worth taking a leisurely stroll through the South Tyrolean capital.
