Thrills and spills in the majestic
Three Peaks mountains
The cable cars in 3 Zinnen Dolomites take you up to the five most popular mountains: Monte Elmo, Stiergarten, Croda Rossa, Monte Baranci and Comelico (Col d'la Tenda), all of which offer hikers, bikers and families plenty of exciting attractions.
The mountains for excursions
- THE FAMILY-ADVENTURE-MOUNTAIN: BARANCI
Baranci is the popular mountain for family excursions. The 4-seater chair lift is situated 3 minutes from San Candido village centre and takes you quickly up to an altitude of 1,500 m. Flowering meadows and lush green pastures provide a wonderful playground for young and old: There are waiting highlights like the new world of the giant, the children’s highlight adventure trail, a tubing run and the fun bob. The mountain station is the starting point for many easy and medium hikes through spruce forests and up to the Baranci summit with stunning views of the Three Peaks.
- STIERGARTEN – The mountain of alpine pastures
Normally the great views come only at the end of a tour, but Orto del Toro gives you an early reward with a view of the Sesto sundial and the Three Peaks. The mountain is a wonderful starting point for lots of hikes and bike tours to the Sesto mountain pastures and over the Carnic Alpine ridgeway.
- MONTE ELMO – the mountain with views
There’s nowhere else in the area which offers you such a far-ranging view as Monte Elmo! And the visitor experience is enhanced by Olperl's Mountain World, the Kinderalm, and a variety of walking and hiking trails from which you can marvel at the sunrise or sunset.
- CRODA ROSSA – the Dolomite experience
The Dolomites are almost close enough to touch from Croda Rossa. This is a location where there were military emplacements in the First World War, and you can immerse yourself in history here, scale the most famous via ferratas in the Alps and visit the smallest and only reindeer herd in the Alps.
